Great Culture but Sales Focused
Great Culture but Sales Focused
I like the culture at Salesforce. It is very much driven by tech professionals who do things the right way.
I also enjoy the great pay and benefits. Another pro is the effort that Salesforce puts into diversity and inclusion. If you are looking to make a difference, Salesforce is certainly a great place to do it.
Very much a sales-focused organization. While the engineers are skilled, they often face hurdles in getting upper-echelon approval when the project is not focused on selling a product or in helping the sales department. This causes the need to implement needless workarounds. It is also a shame about the layoffs.
Include technical focus in your vision and do not focus predominantly on Sales departments.

Salesforce Interview Experiences
Senior Software Engineer
Phone interview was fast enough. Average difficulty. Onsite interviews: Hard algorithm and system design. The rest was as expected. Was able to negotiate offer afterward. Had to wait a few months before the start date due to headcount.
Senior Software Engineer
The interview went well. They were thorough and interested in my needs for growth and the type of management I would want. They were very clear with the goals and objectives of the job. I would highly recommend working at this company.
Senior Software Engineer
Applied through an employee referral. I had three onsite interviews. Everyone was professional and there were plenty of opportunities to ask questions about the organization, structure, and how I fit into the position. There was a bit of whiteboard
