I'm in the process of joining the company and wanted to get an outlook of the future. How does it compare to other diversified companies like Amazon or Google?
Looks solid. One of the companies that wouldn't take a toll even when you hit recession.
True
Recent growth to moderate. SaaS market continues to grow way above the avg software industry growth. Costly acquisitions (think Tableau, Mulesoft,etc from adjacent markets) to give massive Goodwill on balance sheet to hurt future earnings growth. Gradual exodus by top talent (quartile) due to stock price stagnation or limited upside. Next gradient of talent to enter. Nepotism to increase. Culture to begin a gradual long term decline.
Damn! Not to be rude, but did you not get a feel of the company outlook during the interview process ? This is like signing the contract for a $60k car and asking people what their opinion is.
@op how long after the interview did you get your result ?
How prompt is SF when it comes to accept/reject after hiring manager interviews? What about on-site?
Lots of consolidation but sales discipline will continue to exist.
