Pros: Good compensation Fun projects Smart engineers

Cons: Leadership doesn't know what it's doing. Salesforce refuses to leverage Slack properly. Growth is more limited than it should be.

Pros: Coworkers who are smart, kind, and supportive. Good product. Interesting problems to solve.

Cons: Culture has lost its way a bit under Salesforce. Tight budgets, hiring freezes, and tight ACV goals and deadlines have changed priorities across the company for the worse. Stock isn't doing well.

Pros: They give a lot of swag, work pace isn’t too hard, and mid-level people are generally nice.

Cons: This company ruined my life and PIP’d me for taking time off to mourn. They took from me my passion for what I do and made me realize how quickly someone will throw you under a bus. Scheming managers. They did a soft layoff where they were forced to PIP a certain number of employees, and I had never had a performance conversation or a negative comment. The manager fabricated evidence for a PIP (including asking for advice, taking sick time when my dad died, and calling in a senior engineer during a high severity outage). I’ve personally spoken to multiple other engineers that had the exact same thing happen to them.
