I left Salesforce exactly _because_ this was a lie 4ish layoffs ago, and I have no reason to believe it's less of a lie now.
They cut my engineering group into 1/3rd its size, put the other 2/3rds on a greenfield project, and gave us a couple of weeks to complete handoff such that the remaining 1/3rd had to maintain/finish/handle-support-for everything that the 2/3rds group used to own. This all happened in the _middle_ of one of their three yearly waterfall-planned release cycles, so that meant we were also on the hook for delivering everything the original teams had planned.
It was a dumpster fire. From what I gather, things have mostly gotten worse since. They could never pay me enough to go back (well, okay, they could pay me millions per month, and I'd consider going back and then quitting after like a month or two).
