Boiler room mentality

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits and greate place to work if your not in Small Business Sales.

Cons

Micro managment, Boiler room mentality, Pipe generation is what they care about. Too many people calling on the same account. Your litterly fighting over the same customers. Can't work from home. No training offered, you have to train your self on everything. Onboarding is non excisting. High turnover in Small Business Sales. Customers are totally feedup with so many AE's calling on the same account. Salesforce does not believe in their own Ohana in smallbiz. There is no trust and managment don't care about anything but Pipe generation and sales.

All of the discussion about Equality is all marketing. There are so many situations where there is discrimination and now because of all of the news, placing people in places causing now other discrimination.

Thanks for your thoughtful review. We elevated Equality to be a core value at Salesforce because we want to make sure that all employees feel seen, heard, valued and included regardless of their age, race or ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation or religious affiliation. This is something we genuinely care about and are always looking for ways to improve.
