Did they switch from layoffs to firings?

I know of two people who were fired in the last several weeks. Not laid off, no severance offered. Just pack your stuff and leave. This has me worried since I know one of them was an excellent worker. I can't figure out for the life of me what reason... — read more

False advertising

They advertise that you can make $10-$15K in overtime when you get hired or promoted and they’ve now limited everyone to 45 hours per week using intimidation tactics and folks are scared to say anything in fear of getting worse patches in February. — read more 

Waste of money?

I believe you are all familiar with this, but it has now been officially announced that Salesforce is paying more than 27 billion dollars for Slack and I wonder if it is well invested money? How can this help the company and what could be the... — read more

No future at this place

I think it's been made clear to all of us there's no future at Salesforce for anybody who's a hard worker but who refuses to kiss the right behind. I'm sad to say this, but this place has turned into a nest of nepotism and cronyism - and anybody... — read more

This is wrong on so many levels

I was talking to a buddy about Salesforce and the decision to lay people off amid good results and he told me his old company used to do that - cut people in anticipation of a downturn. But what you think about it, this is kind off forcing a... — read more
