Yes, it's their main sales tool for recruiting and public relations efforts. Everyone gets two weeks training in part on 1-1-1 when they join, and employees involved in recruitment get a lot of training on how to present it and respond to questions, and exposed to ongoing marketing on it.
- drivingmenuts 8y agoIs it possible to work there (or any socially invested company) and just do your job and go home? I do certain charitable things but I don't discuss it except with a few people who also participate. I interviewed with a company here in Austin early this year and one of the things that bugged me was how they'd turned their charitable work into a marketing tool with slick brochures. I actually felt bad about being more interested in the actual business work than the charity work.
- mirceal 8y agoYes, it’s possible. You have the option of using up to 7 days per year (56hours) to volunteer and you’re being paid normally for this time. You are encouraged to volunteer and there are events setup regularly in which you can take part if you want. If you have something you personally care about you can volunteer there. That being said nobody is forcing you to volunteer.
- peatmoss 8y ago> I do certain charitable things You’d likely get some encouragement from your manager to do that under the auspices of volunteer time off. If you wanted to give money to a bonafide non-profit, Salesforce would match. From my vantage point of being related to / friends with Salesforce employees, I’m continually impressed by how Salesforce comports itself—even if I don’t care much one way or the other about its actual product.
