Salesforce is great to work at for many reasons.
Work Specific: As a project/client-based role, I am assigned to only one project at a time and therefore can focus my attention on that client. There are tons of supplemental projects, trainings, and activities offered, from Certification Prep to Pro Bono projects. I have always felt supported by my manager and leadership.
Work/Life: The work/life balance is great at Salesforce, and I truly feel as though the company thinks of employees as people rather than units of work. I recently was able to take 6 months of Parental Leave, which was incredible and not something widely offered in the US today.
Because you only work on one project at a time, you do have to be proactive about signing up for additional opportunities.
Further, since Salesforce is such a large company, it can be difficult to network outside your work stream, which can impact your ability to advance.
Continue to offer opportunities to connect outside OUs and give team members chances to learn about different areas of the company. There are so many diverse teams and departments that many of us don't see day to day.
