      Shoddy Products, Great Sales & PR

      Product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Strong sales and marketing Nice offices Dreamforce is done well

      Cons

      Promotions are not merit based. Leadership has favorites (people who look the part) Sell shoddy products that don't exist Talk about equality and diversity is PR not reality Some outstanding engineers but lot of lazy and incompetent engineers who are not held accountable for poor quality work.

      Great Company with Caveats

      Principal solutions engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are many great things I love about Salesforce: * Focus on equality and giving back. This was cutting edge and I love how many companies are now adopting this and putting it up front in their message. * V2MOM - I've never seen anything like it in my working career of over 20 years and I highly recommend all companies adopt it. Having visibility into Benioff's V2MOM down thru his direct reports, and aligning the entire company is crazy great. * My peers are terrific people and I know I can count on them.

      Cons

      I feel the need to share this because I don't believe I was given an honest picture of Salesforce when I was interviewed for my role: * It is a fast paced, frenetic, competitive workplace. If you're good with that and you are hungry to be #1, this is your company. * You need to stay high energy and never take your eye off the ball. Early on, you need to "establish your brand" or you will disappear in the malaise of communication and collaboration.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits are very good - health care, discounted stock, great office and stocked kitchens, wellness benefit, recently changed parental leave very generous Pockets of ppl are nice. Depends on which team you're in Volunteer time off is encouraged and even used as a KPI

      Cons

      Feel like I work in a cult sometimes (or drinking the "kool-aid") - the culture feels superficial and fake. Lots of lip service paid to being best place to work but the level of politics is demoralising and leadership is largely uninspiring working in pre-sales makes me feel like I have to be at the beck and call of the account execs. While most account execs are nice, there are some that make life a misery. As long as these account execs being in business, any bullying or manipulative behaviour is overlooked oracle people taking over the enterprise business. Culture there is terrible. Bullying culture prevalent. HR or "employee success" turn a blind eye - largely ineffectual.
