Pros

It has the normal 401k, pool tables and other nonsence that is not that important. Its got OK work environment with some nice perks.

Cons

The people think they are amazing, they are average. Its got the normal big company politics, and is more of a marketing machine than owners of any revolutionary tech. Externally thought of as leaders in tech, but really internally very behind the times on cloud based computing. Quite a large monolithic stack, that has not evolved in a long time. Any innovation here is bought in acquisitions, which are very poorly integrated into the whole.

Pros

A powerhouse company in the software space. Great benefits, 401k matching, incredible insight into true technical innovation and vision as we enter the IoT.

Cons

Felt like you were working on Wall Street. Overly aggressive targets. Not enough time in a day to manage scope of work in the job description. Bulk of your time was spent cleaning up mistakes of previous reps working that particular patch. Put simply, imagine wading through a never ending administrative swamp of work.

Executive Assistant

Pros

Salesforce is a wonderful place to work if you are lucky enough to work for the right manager. I think you can get the maximum experience of working at Salesforce if you are in the San Francisco office. I am in the NYC office and they are still trying to develop it to mirror the SF Hub. The pay for EA's at SF is on point with other competitive markets.

Cons

Trying to transition to a different role from executive assistant is pretty impossible unless you know the right people. The process for internal candidates is less than desireable and the recruiters that manage EA's are not effective. They scoff at the idea of an EA moving into another role, unless of course you have a connect to move you out of the EA world.
