Removing the `=` in the inequalities seems to work :

g = 9.81;
b = 0.;
c = 1.0;

x0 = 0.001;
v0 = 1.001;

sol = First[
  x /. NDSolve[{x''[t] == 
      Piecewise[{{-g - b*x'[t], x[t] > 0 && x'[t] > 0}, {-g - c*x'[t],
          x[t] > 0 && x'[t] < 0}, {g - b*x'[t], 
         x[t] < 0 && x'[t] < 0}, {g - c*x'[t], 
         x[t] < 0 && x'[t] > 0}}, 0.], x'[0] == v0, x[0] == x0}, 
    x, {t, 0, 1}, MaxSteps -> \[Infinity], AccuracyGoal -> 3]]
