For the most part, yes. WLB is probably better than average for the type of work but SFDC is a poop show right now.

@SC macroeconomics and stock price mean work is harder to land and spending is heavily restricted compared to the same time last year. SFDC has never traditionally wanted to be a PS firm, so Acumen was slotted into a poorly defined strategic architecture type of organization that didn't have a home for most of their resources. The model to sell work is not clean as there are multiple services overlays for an account without clear accountability or structure. Bench costs aren't something SFDC has historically managed, so there are constant concerns over layoffs for bench resources. There have been a few rounds of people losing access to systems and having their work refocused to finding a new job in the next 90 days (this is overall Salesforce, not ex-Acumen specific).

Gonna tag along, see what comes of this question...

Sucks big time.
Run far far away.

Salesforce has no original culture left. The culture is a mash up of all recent acquisitions. Staffing is super slow at finding projects, federal space requires clearance which delays stuff all the more.

SF tends to show that they are super flexible regarding lat moves etc but everything has a process which happens probably once a year or something.

No social meet ups.
