Salesforce

Employees say:

"The learning and growth opportunities at Salesforce are phenomenal. The culture encourages everyone to invest in themselves - to learn the latest technology, to expand your skillsets, to explore other areas of the business where you can bring a fresh perspective. In addition, we are encouraged to give back to our communities and causes that mean the most to each individual. We have paid volunteer hours that our leadership encourages, and even coordinates for us to participate in. I feel empowered to invest my time not only in my job and my team, but also in myself and my community, making me feel that I am more than just an employee, but someone who makes a difference because of where I work."

I mentioned to someone who previously had worked with me (but we were no longer in the same work group) that I had been having a bit of a tough week, and an hour later a delivery of my favorite coffee drink showed up at my door. And that isn't an isolated incident."

Software as a service pioneer Salesforce has become almost as well known in Europe as in the U.S., with 12,866 employees thanks to its AI-driven CRM platform. A 'Return & Remote' approach empowers leaders to offer their teams one of four working models: Office-flexible, requiring employees to be onsite three days per week; Customer-facing, where they join colleagues or customers four days per week; Technical, mandating that product and engineering teams gather for 10 days per quarter; and fully Remote. An annual Dreamforce event unites the global workforce for speeches, seminars, games and networking in San Francisco and online. Salesforce's founders were also the first to adopt the now-popular 1-1-1 model, which commits 1% of the company's equity, technology, and employee time to initiatives improving education, equality, and the environment.

Employees say:

"Every single team is caring and cooperative. Teamwork is done really well at this company. Also there's a great sense of community here in a professional and personal manner. Its highly inclusive and has tons of resources for every employee."

Employees say: 

"Salesforce stands out as an excellent workplace where the organization consistently upholds its core values and ensures fair treatment of employees. Additionally, ample career growth opportunities are provided, and the insurance coverage and additional perks are commendable. The genuine care for employees is evident in the overall experience." 

This software giant went through numerous rounds of layoffs in 2023 as the tech industry pulled back on spending, but new innovations in workplace AI could be a benefit to the remaining workforce. People from underrepresented backgrounds have made up 50% of Salesforce’s workforce since early 2022, and a portion of executive compensation is tied to diversity initiatives. The company boasts 13 distinct equality groups led by employees with 300 chapters in 26 countries. More than half of all employees are members of at least one. All of the employees enrolled in the MentorFinder program, which connects employees with a mentor, say that “mentoring was a good use of my time.” In 2023 the company introduced Great Leader Pathways that encourage employees from entry-level positions and up to develop leadership skills. All employees are offered a $100 reimbursement each month for well-being activities like exercise classes and meditation apps.
