Pros
- The product is great and is a tool that organisations actually need (and want). - The company is just amazing: flexible work hours, work from home or office, volunteering opportunities, lots of SPIFFs and big commission opportunities. - Colleagues often feel like friends, most people are very helpful when you need help or support
Cons
- Local leadership can be a pain, especially if externally hired. Many managers don't get along with the Salesforce values and do not respect your way of working, behaviour or ethics. - Many patches are extremely small and tough to deal with. The base salary is relatively low, so without commissions, it's not a great place to be. However the differences between salaries and commissions can be enormous, so you got to be lucky. - Complicated and political promotion path: you will get promoted but they will always try to downsize your salary, which will be much lower than externally hired candidates.
