Pros
I spent a number of years there and, in the earlier years 2012 - 2016 it was full of potential and promise. Opportunities to grow and try new things for people with 15+ years work experience. The social responsibility and commitment to Ohana culture seemed really enticing. But a bit of a sham and Salesforce taught me that work shouldn't be a "family" because the most dysfunctional social units are typically families.
Cons
As time progressed, it grew more and more ugly. The unintended consequences of growth saw people who were completely incapable of managing themselves leading large teams and even divisions (with the leaders who hired them scared to fire them and admit their failure of promoting them). People who were, frankly, not prepared for the role were given Manager, Sr. Manager, Director, Sr. Director, and VP roles. Towards the end of my time there I spent most days preparing slide decks (apparently VPs can't read anything but slides) and writing scripts for a Senior Vice President who would need to be coached on what to say at meetings to his superiors. Incompetence hires incompetence and quickly tries to root out anyone who questions that. The spirit of the company got lost at some point along the way and now it is more a holding tank for some of the most mediocre people who happen to have extremely high opinions of themselves. This company is often thought of as an innovative company, but it really runs like a government bureaucracy (I have experience in government) where everyone walks around talking and acting a little like the Stepford wives. But very little gets done. There are a few teams who have good leaders that run really well, but most don't. There is a remarkable amount of fear within the company when it comes to speaking up and trying to tackle hard truths. If you are good at your job and do good work, stay away from Salesforce.
