Pros

They have competitive pay, lots of opportunities to work on various projects, some wellness benefits, and are remote work friendly.

Cons

The company spends more time marketing equality externally than actually behaving with that value in mind. They do not publicize retention. Microaggressions, bias, and unequal pay are still issues. There is zero accountability, even from teams tasked to lead this work. From a technical standpoint, it can be easy to pigeonhole yourself into their proprietary stack such that those skills are less marketable outside of the Salesforce community. If you want to work on more modern, industry-standard frameworks outside of Salesforce one day, this may not be the company for you.

Advice to Management

Spend less time marketing the Equality brand and focus internally on the behaviors. This goes for all departments. Prioritize retention. Listen to employees.
