As someone who has been there they will likely view what you're doing to be equal to what a freshmen summer temp might do. Thus asking for professional standard pay has a chance of going poorly. And to be fair as a freshmen you might have less then one year experience in programming.
If someone were to give me advice before I started at a young age I'd have wanted them to tell me to keep my expectations low and treat it as a learning experience and to derive as much enjoyment from it as possible.
- collyw 10y agoI was thinking the same. Our Salesforce / Marketing cloud consultancies are in the same sort of range as described. I am doing the job for a fraction of the price (well my normal wage), but it is taking me a fair bit longer, as I am having to learn a fair bit about these (awful) systems as I go.
- kzisme 10y agoWhat do you dislike about SalesForce? We're currently looking at CRM's and that is one of the choices, so I'm curious about your thoughts on it.
- collyw 10y agoAs a developer its really tedious to work with. I have to integrate our booking system with it, sending everything via the REST API. Its got loads of restrictions (only send 1000 records per file and such like) that make it really slow. It takes around 1 week to do a similar task via salesforce as a day long task doing Django to Django. A lot of the functionality need to be done over their web interface - so again slow. Mass deleting records again has limits of 250 per delete. I am sure an expert in Salesforce would be able to do things more efficiently than me, but its unpleasant enough to work with, that I don't especially want to become one.
