A lot of brainwashing...

Pros

- 100 euros for wellness - Unlimited snacks

Cons

- A lot of brainwashing. All you hear and see in the office is them being the #1 at everything they do. At some point, I am wondering if employees really feel happy or if it is just because the rankings are saying so. Please note that you also have to learn by heart a presentation in order to be able to anyone how great SF is. - HR is not mature in Europe. It is quite concerning to not have direct HR support for each country and that you need to log a ticket on their intranet platform. A real person would be nice to have to discuss real/ important life matter - If you don't work in Sales you might not really feel considered by the company. - Getting very corporate and political.. A sad feeling

Pros

Volunteer program, fast growing, strong solution portfolio, many benefits and great SE's. The Marketing power of Salesforce is one of a kind.

Cons

Becoming a very political driven company where internal reputation and politics is most important. The majority is not making their numbers. The ones who do can easily loose their territory in order to redistribute to the non-performers. Career opportunties are limited due to external hiring.

Pros

Very commercial, one of the best marketing machines on this planet with an excellent product. Focus at being the company helping other companies to become a customer company using cloud technology, no deviations to other markets. The best salary, conditions etc. I have ever seen at the level I am working at.

Cons

Organization split into silos thus prohibiting all division to collaborate around 1 client through it's life cycle. Some colleagues focused on 'plucking the low hanging fruit' and not at getting share of wallet within one enterprise customer. Although my application went very well, I see many candidates wait too long for feedback.
