I’m also interviewing from consulting to Salesforce! I have no doubts on the work culture - everyone raves about it. Just doubts that it’ll be also challenging as a corporate, and diverse like a consulting position. Can you tell me more about how your interview was? I’m interviewing for a solutions architect role too. I’m doing it “all” currently. Analyst mostly. But pm, presales, architect, implantation, training for team lead, etc. as a consultant now.

Can you post your hesitations

Tough to vouch for culture. There’s 70,000 people so culture isn’t consistent regardless of what the handbook says. WLB is good across the board for 99% of employees. Room for growth again depends. Promotions are not very transparent and some orgs preach the “wait your turn” mentality. 🤷‍♂️

Would love to work at Salesforce. I heard the room for growth and WLB, but my own major hesitation would be pay. I heard they can’t compete in that department.

That’s the opposite of what I’ve heard. They pay $$$ and poach everyone.

I know it’s going to cause some tension, and some may even quit. Any advice on how to navigate the situation?

I started a new job just 7 weeks ago, but an opportunity for a dream job just suddenly and unexpectedly fell into my lap!

That being said… I’m going to feel bad leaving this new job so soon. I’m sure they’ll be disappointed and maybe even angry… is there any way to NOT burn bridges on my way out of this current job?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
