Pros: I was hired during the pandemic, but the onboarding process was smooth. Everyone is welcoming, and the company gives you a very generous 45 days to complete your onboarding process. Their overall compensation package is competitive. There are a lot of learning opportunities.
Cons: As a Canadian-based employee, you get 15 days PTO to start that includes sick and vacation time.
You wish the pandemic will change sick leave policy, but not yet at Salesforce.
They offer extra time off only if it is COVID-related.
They offer a Leave of Absence for long-term, but for all short-term absence, you need to use your PTO.

Pros: So many opportunities here at Salesforce.
Management is very receptive to feedback, and you have lots of opportunities to give back to the community.
I feel so proud to work here!
Cons: So many opportunities here at Salesforce. You have to really be intentional with what you are choosing to do. Jack of all trades, master of none. Also, you can get stuck on projects that you are not passionate about. Such is consulting!
