Salesforce reviews

Mandated in-office 4 days a week with no data to prove the necessity and despite push back from employees. This comes after directly saying "Office mandates will not work" and refusing to take accountability for these past statements. Recent talk of yearly employee rankings and firing low performers despite not defining performance needed. Offices are closing and office space and perks are being removed despite the push for RTO. Layoffs occurred a month ago and we were told there would be no increase in work. My output has increased by 100% and we are not allowed to take overtime to compensate for this. The layoffs were determined at an executive level where those performing layoffs do not understand the daily job function of those that they cut. Executive leadership continuously ignore/does not seek feedback. They act as if they address concerns but simply do not acknowledge real issues and instead double down on their initial stance when given feedback.

In reading some recent reviews, it's good to see the "Ohana" phrase is being called out for what it is, which is a marketing stunt. You are not family when you work at this company (or any company for that matter). You are assigned an employee number, and that is who you are. One keyboard stroke will put you in the 10% layoff column. Regardless of your skills, you need an account that is primed to spend money to expand their SFDC footprint. Reasons could include having just acquired another company (more SF licenses), or having recently hired a former SF exec (who will be your champion). Otherwise, if you don't have one, you will have a handful of accounts that have been pestered to let us "advise" them on how to solve their problems for the past several years. These customers understand the game, and avoid you like the plague. If you're in that unlucky category, your job will not be fun (nor will your commission checks). You then have to constantly get "scrappy," and ultimately do unnatural things to try and get any ACV on the board. You will also be viewed as an unproductive seller, and ultimately get managed out. To summarize, you need to have luck on your side (or be handed good accounts by your boss). Otherwise, you're constantly on the defense, and it's all your fault.
