Salesforce reviews

Got hired in Feb 2022 and their leadership agreed during All Hands Meet that they hired folks around the world absurdly and now they are planning to cut cost so that they achieve their $50B target, didnt know they would fire within 3 months the probation. If you get an interview do ask them about the of your role and their team and how much budget they have for the next year to continue to be active

Extremely toxic culture. "Leadership" that specialized in gaslighting and very blatant threats. An HR department that chooses to sweep complaints about senior leaders (from multiple people and orgs) under the rug. HR seemed to purposely omit exit interviews for many people I knew who left for some of these reasons. Constant reminders about how we're all "Ohana" but yet numerous mass layoffs with little warning, PIPs were given to people for little to nothing, unreasonable expectations were set to purposely to drive people out of the company (i.e., expecting an associate engineer who joined my team to deliver the same level of work I was within their first month... they quit last year too). Politics ruled the world; you couldn't get anything done unless you were doing a favor for another team or going to the top of the chain to force it down someone's throat... which people often thought was funny to do on a Friday afternoon to force others to work the weekend. Initiatives were constantly changing before the previous one was completed. Management never really seemed to know what was actually the focus of the month because, quite frankly, they were moved around so often and so overloaded, they rarely knew more than the "1000 foot view" of the product they were supposed to be managing. Hours mandated were ridiculous; some days we worked until 3 or 4am and were expected back on shift by 9 or 10am; wasn't uncommon to work 60 to 80 hour weeks, occasionally seeing 90 to 105 (yes in a single week and no that'snot an exaggeration). A considerable amount of talk publicly about "work life balance" but it wasn't present in the slightest in our org. I could honestly write another entire thesis on the things that weren't great about working here after my 7 years. I left because I just didn't want to deal with it anymore (like MANY others) and I've literally talked a number of people out of even trying to apply. If you're young, single, and love to do nothing but work your life away, it'll be a great place to learn but don't get stuck there in the golden handcuffs if the position doesn't suit you. There are MUCH better places to work who will treat you like a person instead of a feature delivering dog.
