Executive Assistant (Former Employee) - New York, NY - September 14, 2023

Your experience largely depends on the team you support. Culture is going downhill, changes with activist investors have caused all unique aspects of Salesforce (wfh, work life balance, ohana) to go away in favor of a more Amazon-like approach.

Stressful but productive

BDR (Current Employee) - Toronto - September 13, 2023

Lots of work to get done but job is fair and productive. High expectations and quotas set by management but compensation and environment is good. Not for everyone but can be rewarding

It’s all about the people

Good, smart, hardworking people who work at Salesforce. That was the most enjoyable and rewarding part of working at Salesforce. There’s a great deal of opportunities for advancement and lateral moves.

Overall, I did like my job and team at Salesforce. I was somewhat challenged and enjoyed the work we did. I also received great benefits.

Director of Systems, Customer Experience, Digital Transformation (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - September 6, 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?Benefits include time off, pay, and potential stock options.What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Leadership and constant change. Leadership is not always very experienced and they are not transparent. The biggest issue, you never know if you will have a job or if your job, role, and or manager will change. There is always a reorg.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?I don't feel there is really a culture but the environment is hostile and all over the place. You never know who you can escalate to or if you can.What is a typical day like for you at the company?Up and down. Leadership does not provide much direction. But, if you are a driver, you will spend most of your time-fighting fires.

Great company to work for

Lead UX Designer (Current Employee) - Remote - September 5, 2023

Generous benefits. No negativity with working from home (teams are dispersed everywhere). Friendly work culture. But, been here too long - my pay isn't competitive anymore.

Culture has shifted - it's not what it used to be

Category Manager (Current Employee) - San Francisco, CA - September 2, 2023

Culture has definitely shifted, they are trying to cut corners to keep their pockets thick. It used to be an amazing place to work, not anymore. They are hiring folks outside of CA to pay lower rates.

great place to work

Senior Software Engineer (Former Employee) - San Francisco, CA - August 28, 2023

Salesforce is truly an amazing place to work, boasting a remarkable company culture that sets it apart. From day one, I was welcomed into a supportive and inclusive environment that values innovation, collaboration, and personal growth. The dedication to employee well-being, professional development opportunities, and a strong sense of purpose make Salesforce a standout employer. The company's commitment to making a positive impact on the world not only inspires its workforce but also fosters a sense of fulfillment that is truly unparalleled.

Decent WLB but getting worse, Tech can be better

Software Engineer (Current Employee) - Indianapolis, IN - August 27, 2023

The tech is slowly evolving here vs other companies. Also the comp isn't bad but not top tier like Faang. WLB used to be the best but high performance culture has me worried.

Difficult Quotas / No Promotions

BDR (Current Employee) - Washington, DC - August 22, 2023

Same quota for every territory- so if you have a difficult territory due to IT budgets, current install or difficult AE teams- the quotas are impossible to reach every month. Almost impossible to get promoted like promised in the beginning.

Morale Compass Lost

Consultant (Former Employee) - Remote - August 16, 2023

Staff are worried about numbers and layoffs they backstab each other. Workload is unbearable. No strategic vision - struggling to land long term business. No career opportunities unless you're best buddies with someone up the chain (nothing new here.) Keep moving....

Good if mental health and fulfillment are not a top priority to you

Business Development (Former Employee) - United States - August 14, 2023

It's usually pretty flexible and the benefits are great, but it seemed like there was little integrity and a lot of workplace politics. Quotas were often based on inflated numbers. If you ain't first, you're last.
