Vantaggi
-- Great benefits -- Financially healthy company (balance sheet and income statement) -- Talented and intelligent people -- Opportunities to direct your career -- Opportunities to connect with colleagues and build communities
Svantaggi
-- Leaders/managers and internal orgs failing to march toward a common vision and strategy, often executing in their own direction/interests rather than collaborating to win together. -- Poor ethics in senior management who unnecessarily laid off 10K people in 2023 (only to hire some back months later), and the workforce reductions were poorly implemented/communicated. -- Too many layers of power-driven (versus the "empower others" mindset) middle management with their own political interests. -- Lack of internal trust across orgs/teams, despite the company claim/value that "trust matters" (i.e., active managerial resistance protecting political interests at the expense of what's best for the company; often not able to gain access to information to do my job). -- Hypocrisy to claim "diversity" is a value when most of those staff were the first to be laid off; hypocrisy to claim "trust" is a value with so much internal conflict and lack of effective strategic collaboration; hypocrisy to claim "employees/people" are valued when -- despite a healthy financial position -- you lay off thousands of people to temporarily appease activist billionaire hedge funds/investors who don't give a about Salesforce (or any other) employees/people.
