So, got the email 10 days ago - we are PROUDLY donating our used cheese. Its so woke. In other news, about 55 days ago 1000+ people were victims of a soft layoff. They hit the streets on 4/1 - To my knowledge they did not get first dibs on this... —  read more 

The CSG layoffs were handled atrociously and based on internal recruiting it seems like they had no desire to actually help us get new roles. It has been psychological torture.

Whatever... https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/25/salesforce-promises-no-major-layoffs-over-the-next-three-months.html

Thoughts? Comments? Where is this taking us?

Got laid off in a webinar with 50 people and no warning, even though they knew this would happen. Terrible planning for us, remaining team members and clients.

Guys, Salesforce is a terrible environment that is basically Oracle with better marketing. The question about whether Marc knows about this is laughable. As someone who has had a long ride inside the company, I would just say don't believe... —  read more 

This week was brutal and while everybody is hoping the worse is over, can we really be sure it's done? This round caught me off guard, I really wouldn't want to experience that again. I nearly had an anxiety attack at work this week, and that's... —  read more 

Not many details, just that people are being let go to 'right-size' the organization. It seems a small number are impacted, though no details on the exact number.

Heard he's on his way out heading over to run Block Center.

I believe this was a semi-planned layoff of mainly QA folks who were given roughly 1 year notice to re-train and apply for development positions. Some did so. I don't think all managers did an effective job of enabling people to do so however. I had... —  read more 

They laid off 89 people from QA in Indianapolis. Very bad

I know that this sounds like a broken record (cliché, but a good one)…. Rumors - some folks are talking about possibly having layoffs in San Francisco.

I left a few years back right now - but still have good friend over there working, happily - now I am hearing that you may have job cuts in San Francisco.

This sounds very much like the Microsoft layoff incident July 2014. It is clear by looking at the latest job posting from Salesforce that they are looking for engineers who can test software as well. Microsoft laid off many quality engineers, perhaps... —  read more 

We cut roughly 200 people last year, we did not blink here. 2014 will be an interesting year, I expect us to go and grow this year. Many CRM outfits are struggling but I hear our sales numbers and I can tell you that salesforce.com is the leader with... —  read more
