Salesforce fish- what are some of the extra perks for working there? Saw the big Christmas party concert, but curious if anything was done for employees elsewhere. Also know Salesforce is huge on their events and giving away swag, curious if that is just customer facing or they treats employees the same? Obviously offices use to have the kitchens and be amazing but being remote eliminates that.

I have been an employee, ISV partner, consulting partner, and customer. Swag is pretty limited in CSG, where the consultants are. You get the employee backpack - distinctive, but not exciting - and we all got a fairly plain "Amer Profesional Services" pullover hoodie last Christmas. I got a couple of other things for deals or initiatives I was a part of as a thank you from the people running it, paid for out of pocket. You can order and be reimbursed for Trailhead Ranger swag packs that are ok...but let me be clear, nothing on the employee side will top being a customer/attending Dreamforce as an attendee.

Health & wellness benefits are top notch, RSU's for manager/7+ are nicer than working for a consultancy or most clients, but lesser than FAANG (which do have Salesforce jobs).

Working for Salesforce is either about 1. Enabling sales, 2. Building the products sold/what's next, or 3. Sitting in-between those two worlds as an in-house consultant and having access to information and tools which are (usually) more interesting to geek out to, than useful to deliver better outcomes than the consulting competitors do with stuff they've built. And seeing behind the curtain means you mostly don't get to partake in the fun stuff the company does for customers and partners, unless you have "evangelist" in your job title.

Thank you. Super helpful to hear this. Trying to separate the customer hype of Salesforce from what it would be like to work there

Made the transition from consulting to the mothership as an SE. Life is great comparatively. The biggest thing for me is just the people - genuine and fun people that are all super sharp. It’s not on the perks website but it was the biggest difference for me!

Have a few questions regarding IBM Joining, HR response is strangely lacking and so does in the slack(prejoin channels). Hoping can be cleared here..
a) I've been told virtual onboarding is no longer a thing.
How many days does in-person onboarding activities occur?
b) HR Informed,"After onboarding is complete, can get perm WFH based on project or extension of WFH as IBM is flexible"
Is this true? Can managers extend/grant remote for a month then let us transit to remote model?

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing.

I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?
