Customer Support Group is hell( Never Join Developer Support)

Success agent

Business Outlook

Pros

Free food , Cab and perks

Cons

I joined this company with great aspiration and my dream shattered within a couple of weeks. From Managers to Upper Management in AMER shift in India craves for CSAT ...they push engineers to pitch surveys... total breach with customer ethics and core values of salesforce. Support Agent is like a survey machine nothing more than that...in fact the team never cares about the learning and enhancing the skills of Engineers. Rather find a way to get the good survey. I left the company in frustration due to these malpractices and learning curve was zero.

Salesforce does not know to to retain valuable employees

Senior account executive

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of opportunities to move roles within the company. Very competitive pay with great benefits. Awesome opportunities to travel and meet great customers.

Cons

Terrible work-life balance, they expect long hours and push you extremely hard with not a lot of recognition or performance appreciation. They unfairly pay women employees even though there has been an effort to correct it. In the Sales organization is still a very close-knit boys club with no women leaders. Politics will get the best of you rather than actually focusing on getting the job done

Pros

Excellent CRM company - I was so excited to be part of this amazing company.....then they had a reorg - then another - and on and on and on!!!

Cons

If you’re lucky enough to get with a good manager it’s awesome- but don’t get settled in because they reorg every year. There is no change management policy and people are just shuffled around with no consideration for career paths. My manager has zero leadership skills. 1/1s are cancelled often and experienced individuals on the team are underutilized. Lots of wasted time on developing processes that are never implemented. - this company operates as a startup! There are a lot of talented people here that will leave because their managers are stifling their growth and creativity and not allowing employees to use their skills. Very sad!
