Pros
A handful of nice colleagues
Cons
Misogynistic work culture. Long hours with all the rewards and glory being taken by the members of the 'Boys Club'.

Pros
RelateIQ's culture is unbeatable. It's a company that really lives by its values. On top of that, management is really receptive to suggestions and are willing to make changes if things aren't going well (which is rare in the first place). I loved working there and always felt like my work was valued. There was also a great feedback structure so my mentors and managers were there to help me out. It's great to work with such accomplished, but still completely humble, people. I didn't meet anyone who I didn't enjoy working with. Lastly, the perks are great because we have an awesome ops team: gym benefits, 3 meals a day, frequent team bonding events, tons of good-looking swag, and everything else you could think of.
Cons
The work/life balance isn't great and hours can get quite long at times (11-14 hrs/day). That being said, being at the office is actually quite fun and not too much of a burden. Managers are also super flexible with vacation time or working from home.

Pros
Good company with lots of benefits which help the sales and engineering department to enjoy work.
Cons
Very bad work-life balance for TA and RC. Don't know why the TA head is putting lots of pressure on closing the positions. The intervention of management is mandated to help the culture sustain. The way working hours and weekends are giving lots of pressure and no mental health or work-life balance.

Pros
Salesforce is an awesome place to work. I was fortunate enough to work with few teams in Salesforce during my tenure. Demo Engineering was one of them so when I heard about some rumblings about this team, I thought of sharing my perspective. DE is one of the most amazing teams in Salesforce to work. It houses some of the best talents from the Industry with diverse cultural background. If you bring two things to the table talent and right attitude then irrespective of your gender, age or experience you get the spot on this team. I’ve seen leadership bring in lot of fresh talent with almost no experience but with right attitude. Also there have been cases when folks with not-so-great english were also given opportunity solely based on their talent. How to use technology to bring transparency in an organization is something one should learn from Salesforce. From number of demos you worked on, number of hrs you logged or even number of times your received appreciation, everything is open and accessible at each level from your peers to top global leadership. DE Team is entrusted with task of delivering successful demos where you are racing against time. There is lot of support and encouragement not just from leadership but even from within the team. During my initial days, team helped me learn and get up to speed with work. Whenever I was stuck with anything, team was just a call away. I’ve never worked in a team with such strong sense of ownership till now. During my tenure, India team was leader among global teams in delivering most number of successful demos. There is lot of focus from on your professional and personal growth. I’ve seen people getting nominated for various technical and leadership trainings. Also, Salesforce was kind enough to identify and sponsor trainings for folks who face challenge in communication. You are encouraged to create your own development plan keeping your talent and aspirations in mind. Leadership helps create various growth opportunities for each team member. There is guidance and coaching available for each member. I've seen successful transitions from this team into various roles within Salesforce and even outside. In their pursuit of giving back to society, Salesforce encourages each employee to volunteer. They not only provide paid time off for such volunteering activities but also give hefty sum of $2000 as a grant which each employee can donate. Volunteering activities are available throughout the year and employees are free to choose them as per their interests and beliefs. DE is one of the few teams in Salesforce where each team member proudly achieves their volunteering goals every year. Salesforce provides flexibility of work hours and work from home. Each team defines their own schedule and work hours keeping healthy overlap between their global peers. DE work hours in India are 9-5. At times you are required to get on a call with global peers late evening or early mornings but the folks are always considerate of the fact.
Cons
Nothing I could think of.

Pros
Feels like smaller company would offer better compensation for less work to do.
Cons
Too much useless trainings and compliances on which you have to spend ton of time being paid 2 hours overtime per week. Would not say benefits are either that great.

Pros
Great salary and benefits. Free snacks and drinks in the break rooms. Many opportunities to give back to the community during work hours and donation matching grants.
Cons
This company's leaders is doing everything it can to ostracize conservative-minded employees and men. If you don't agree with "the company's" political agenda, you had best keep it to yourself or your career will take a hit.

Pros
- You work with the best minds in the industry. Developers are very talented and hardworking. - Compensation is one of the best in the industry. Other benefits include free breakfast, snacks, fruits, frequent team lunches - You have the flexibility to shift to any team after few releases and there is absolutely no politics in that proces. You can chose to work in back-end server side work or front-end or mobile or any technology you want. - If you are good people really respect you and you have a lot of potential to grow. There is very less politics here compared to the other big companies I have seen
Cons
- Sometimes the work can become very hectic and you might have to put extra hours to get things done.

Pros
The product stacks and the overall customer success platform are second to none. You have full confidence going into a customer meeting that Salesforce can support your customer's use case, no matter how complex and obviously you have fantastic brand awareness. Great pay, fabulous benefits and the focus on social impact is incredible. Equal pay for women is also a plus!
Cons
Work/life balance is a tough one. Prepare to work well outside normal hours to get the job done but work is remote and flexible.
