Salesforce Work Experiences
- 5.0Great company (mostly)Director - Technology • Former EmployeeChicago, Illinois, United StatesMarch 1, 2022Pros: Salesforce is a great company, if you level set your expectations. * Consistent pay, benefits, and PTO * Smart peers * Good company culture and values * Manageable scope of work without much deviationCons: Cultural indoctrination; you need to fully buy into the Salesforce culture to be a fit. If you don't drink the Kool-Aid, you won't be a fit. Still lacks diversity in parts of the organization; cultural and gender diversity remains a challenge. Your role is to stay in your swim lane. The scope of your work is defined, and you are expected to stay in your swim lane. In order to get promoted, you either need friends higher up or fit a very specific Salesforce profile. There is partially still a glass ceiling for many minorities.
