Thank you for your review. While you have shared some positives about your experience, our Employee Success Team like to investigate further what you have shared in your Advice to Management section. Discrimination is certainly not tolerated here and if you have not done so already, I'd like to ask that you reach out to the Employee Relations Team to help us investigate this further. If you'd prefer, however, you can also reach out to our anonymous third-party provider EthicsPoint at salesforce.ethicspoint.com to share additional details.

Pros

The people are awesome. It's amazing to see 40k+ employees all marching to the beat of the same drum. Great benefits. Lots of upward and lateral opportunity for employees

Cons

Can feel "cultish" at times. SE pay varies based on Geography which can mean a paycut/non-competitive pay depending on where you live and where you were working before. SE's are not paid commission for the quarter if they leave during the quarter. No pro-rated pay. Nothing. You just lose it. Only place I've worked where you give two weeks notice, they agree you can leave after a week because there is not reason to keep you aboard for the full two weeks, and they don't pay you the full two weeks. While employed, the culture felt caring and inclusive, and not like a big company . When you're ready to leave, you get treated like it's a big company where you are just a number.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're sorry to see you're no longer with the business but are glad to hear that you had such a positive experience while you were here. It is disappointing, though, to hear about your experience during your exit. This is an area that we'd like to improve in. To help us better understand the process that you went through, we'd like to ask that you reach out to our third-party provider Ethicspoint at http://www.salesforce.ethicspoint.com so we can incorporate your feedback into our plans.

Pros

Great benefits, encouraged to give back (volunteer), work with smart people

Cons

Good luck if you're a remote employee. Would love to see promotion statistics for women vs. men. If you're a white male, don't worry, you're good! You'll get hired at a higher level and promoted quickly. Blah, blah, blah equality....Promotions are arbitrary.
