Salesforce reviews

Corporate cheerleading is out of control. If you don’t want to drink the kool aid and shake the pom poms on the daily, I would steer clear. Layoffs are handled very poorly, but severance was good. Cultural appropriation is blatant, unless they hired a Hawaiian CEO after I left. I was bounced from manager to manager over and over with no real support or plan for my career.

The pay is laughable compared to other SaaS companies and the worst part of SF is the multiple layers of management with most doing absolutely nothing to either help you grow or close a deal. We would have a team meeting to discuss deals only to be told to discuss a deal in a 1:1 with the manager, only to be told to schedule a meeting to discuss the same deal again another time - but no actual help on the deal. The only advice managers would give is to get a partner involved - for everything and i mean everything. Customer has a problem with something sold, get a partner on it - Customer upset about a bill, talk to a partner. And the solution to trying to close a deal was always, lets lower the price and see if that gets them, especially in January or July.... no real concern for the customers, just get the docusign signed and then a month later try to build another project. They act like they care about the customers, but they don't anymore. It is sad because I came to SF with the thought that they did care - oh well. Also, no way to progress your career unless you are a "yes" man/woman ---- way too many of those in leadership positions that they didn't deserve on merit for sure.
