Lots of growth, but has lost its culture and start up feel

Senior business analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexibility in my current position. Lots of room for growth and training. Great product, very innovative and fast paced company.

Cons

No clear company direction. Strategy and long term vision are kept to the senior management and tech visionaries. The rest of the company just has to learn and get up to speed after technology/products are launched. Salesforce is a sales company, not enough emphasis or attention goes to Support/Services.

Maybe not for everyone, but amazing for me

Business Outlook

Pros

I love the company as a place to work and have had a lot of jobs here. The product is amazing and gets better every day (literally). Customers (in general) love the product and the brand. Visionary leadership literally re-defining the industry. A clear process for defining and communicating strategy and priorities. Breakthrough internal collaboration using Chatter.

Cons

The work is hard. Processes and systems are not as mature as most 5000 person companies. There is a lot of HQ centric thinking. I would (ad do) trade the positives for these issues any day.
