Pros

I really enjoy my coworkers and being Orange. I like the downtown office locations and the free food and drinks. The culture has kept me here but the pressures are mounting and the uncertainty of the company make it hard to stay. Pay has been pretty good. ExactTarget Connections is always fun but is ton of work.

Cons

Work life balance has gotten really out of whack the past year and a half. I do more and more but then get more and more to do. It seems like if I don't check my email at 10 at night I am considered a slacker, very hard to have a life outside of ExactTarget and nearly impossible to keep up with management constantly changing directions. I am the only minority on my floor, ExactTarget is overwhelmingly Caucasian probably 98% in the US offices, which is kind of depressing. Also it's very difficult to get promoted as a female above a director level, nearly impossible so I am considering switching companies to either Angies List or Interactive Intelligence as I hear they are better about promoting diversity.

Pros

Very vibrant culture which is focused on education and growth. Company knows how to work and play hard. Very socially minded with a focus on 'foundation' and employees that are generally very nice and respectful. A great focus on 'doing the right thing.'

Cons

Fast pace can be exhausting at times. The culture is to help each other out and go the extra mile for the customer, which can lead to long days.

Pros

Salesforce.com is a hidden gem from an employment perspective. I am sure it looks like Siebel on the outside to some people (just another CRM software company). But it's a company on a mission. With 10,000s of employees you cannot avoid the usual bureaucracy, but the company is strongly driven by mission and I think that is huge.

Cons

Salesforce.com is getting big. It may not be what you're looking for.
