Lay off so many people while the pandemic is still raging and the economy is in the c-apper? Leave so many families without their livelihood when chances of finding a new job are close to none?
I used to love this place and i was proud to work here. They erased all of that with this move. Shame on this leadership.
Am sympathetic to those laid off but there's also quite an 'entitlement' culture at Salesforce.
In internal Chatter groups, including one that the entire company can see, there were posts by employees asking and demanding that the company pay employees for using additional electricity and snacks that they would have to buy working from home. Lots of 'Likes' to posts like that so it wasn't just some random person who felt entitled.
Company has made many acquisitions and I have been wondering when they would start to eliminate roles. I also am skeptical to the need for a "Salesforce Tower" to be in every major city, if there is one company that needs help from signage rights, this is not it. Big office suites just mean more overhead.
Add the $ 20M just given to SF/Oak schools, all the blather about Ohama, and it's impossible not to cut staff and not look hypocritical.
Understand the fears about 2021, China (as a new market) clearly is fraught with problems, will they really allow a Chinese flavor of salesforce, that allows the state to access all your data?
Not a good look after our “best quarter ever”
amen
which team are you part of ?
OHANA BABY
I just got notified 10 hours ago of the layoff, very sad. Where is the Ohana? and yet still trying to help others who are in difficulty via lots of VTO? a bit hypocrite
