Starting any job can be daunting. Add a global work environment irreversibly changed by the COVID-19 pandemic<\/a>, and it can be even harder! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To find out what Salesforce Morocco is like for new starters, we spoke to two employees to share their experiences. Solutions Architect El Mehdi Attabou and Project Manager Soukaina Sbihi both started in 2021. We wanted to find out why they believe working at Salesforce is the best place to work and here\u2019s what they told us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Virtual onboarding without compromising Ohana<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Even though hiring and onboarding happen 100% virtually, it doesn\u2019t affect the quality of the process. Mehdi explained how smooth the onboarding process was: \u201cI mentioned to my manager how friendly everyone was. He said that, yes, from the outside, Salesforce looks like a good company, but it\u2019s from the inside it becomes obvious how great it is. From the inside, you really feel the Ohana, the family. You get seamless virtual onboarding, and everything else that comes with it is something that you wouldn\u2019t have anywhere else in Morocco.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several teams contribute to the success of new starters\u2019 first days, from hiring managers to the onboarding team to IT support. And it\u2019s all done virtually. Every team member working at Salesforce Morocco is willing to help and support new hires. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe onboarding process was great,\u201d said Soukaina, \u201cand we had a couple of days of just meeting and getting to know people. Not just in Morocco, but in other countries, other practices, and other roles. I ended up with a crystal clear visibility of who does what, and I got answers to all my questions \u2013 even ones I didn\u2019t realise I had!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cutting-edge technology jobs in Morocco<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Both Mehdi and Soukaina have seen growth at Salesforce Morocco, even in the relatively short time they\u2019ve been at the company. Employee numbers and expertise are growing, and everyone embraces a growth mindset \u2013 from the newest hires to the most experienced team members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Success can be achieved from anywhere, whether in an office or working from home<\/a>, and Salesforce provides a safe environment to share and provide feedback. Keeping connected isn\u2019t always easy when you work remotely, but at Salesforce Morocco many initiatives make a difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Catch-up sessions three times a week and apps like Slack<\/a> are incredibly beneficial for keeping in touch and getting to know colleagues. And, Mehdi himself started an initiative to hold a monthly virtual event where his team catches up, takes part in icebreakers, and plays fun games, strengthening the team\u2019s bond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What makes working remotely at Salesforce different?<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mehdi has been working remotely for other companies since 2013, so it should be nothing new, but remote working experience is very different from Salesforce. \u201cBefore Salesforce, I would have to interrupt my day to connect with Skype or Teams. Now, I feel the trust. Even if you\u2019re not online with Slack<\/a>, it doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re not working.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike Mehdi, Soukaina wasn\u2019t used to working remotely and was worried about how she would find it. \u201cHow can I work with people I haven\u2019t met, and how can I handle projects without meeting customers? But I was astounded at how fluent and smooth everything was. The results that we have are just incredible. Everything is coordinated, even between teams from other regions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best place to work for a work-life balance<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the things that impresses Soukaina the most about Salesforce encouraging a positive work-life balance is the wellbeing programme. \u201cThe world is changing because of the pandemic and we have to change with it, but it seems Salesforce has always supported that drive for work-life balance. The well-being programme is incredibly valuable. We have workshops that help us achieve the right balance, we\u2019re encouraged to stick to working hours, and take regular breaks, among other things.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time management is flexible, and employees are trusted to manage their workloads. Parental leave<\/a> at Salesforce is a much-appreciated benefit, with primary carers entitled to 26 weeks paid time off (compared to 14 weeks entitlement for mothers in Morocco) and secondary carers entitled to 12 weeks (compared to the general paternity leave in Morocco of just 3 days!) Salesforce also supports employees getting the COVID-19 vaccine in Morocco, offering time off both to have the vaccine and for recovery time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Living Salesforce values<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Working at Salesforce is about truly feeling and living the organisation\u2019s values. From equality, with everyone treated the same no matter what role, gender, ideologies, or anything else, to innovation. As Mehdi explained, \u201cWhen I was a student in Germany I heard a lot about Salesforce\u2019s innovation. When I joined, I really felt it. We have leaders, we have great products, and innovation keeps growing\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reality of working at Salesforce has surpassed Soukaina\u2019s expectations. \u201cAt the interviews, I thought it would be a match, but joining the company was beyond my expectations. I\u2019ve been here a year and I\u2019m just as excited and even more motivated than the day I joined. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
