Pros
Salesforce.com is THE training ground for everything Sales. They are very good and pushing you to develop your professional skill set as well as getting you trained on a very honed selling system. The app you use everyday is what you sell as well so it's very easy to position it.
Cons
All the success has led to a lot of account executives in the various business segments so territories are small. It can be difficult to hit your quota numbers if you do not have a blue chip territory. Those typically go to the manager's favorites... so if you don't get along with your manager the possibility of hitting your quota drops. If you work hard though you can typically succeed there.
