Traditional ideas about work have been transformed \u2014 flexible schedules have replaced 9-to-5 workdays, and hybrid work has replaced five days in the office. But there is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to work. In order to be successful, we must take into account the unique needs of each team and the jobs to be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Salesforce, we\u2019ve reignited our high performance culture to unlock new levels of productivity and drive greater customer success. One of the key ways we\u2019re doing this is through our Return &amp; Remote guidelines, which leverage the best of what we\u2019ve learned about how work gets done and our incredible offices around the world to drive deeper collaboration, continuous coaching, peer mentoring, and employee enablement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Return &amp; Remote approach empowers leaders to make decisions for their teams about how and where they work, using the following guidelines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Office-flexible: <\/strong>Office-flexible teams are assigned to an office location, and work in-person three days per week \u2013 whether in the office, meeting with customers or partners, or attending events.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Customer-facing: <\/strong>Customer-facing teams are in-person with each other or their customers four days per week.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Technical:<\/strong> Product and engineering teams are in-person together 10 days per quarter for product releases, team-building, and collaboration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Remote: <\/strong>Remote employees are not assigned to an office and remote status is agreed upon with the employee\u2019s manager.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We trust our leaders to know their business and their people \u2014 including which jobs need to be done in the office or remotely \u2014 and make decisions for their teams accordingly. Some teams, like our engineers, need to come together for longer periods each quarter for scrums and product launches. On the other hand, customer-facing teams like Sales benefit from being in-person with each other and with customers most days of the week. Since we first introduced these guidelines in February 2023, office attendance is up more than 40% globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve also learned that not all jobs require an office. If that\u2019s the case, employees can work with their leadership to switch to full-time remote work. Historically, about 18% of our employees have worked remotely, and today, that number has increased to 27% \u2014 and rising \u2014 as we continue to innovate around how and where we work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is a win-win \u2014 employees can continue to lead with flexibility, and leaders can increase efficiency and productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we move forward, we will continue to listen, learn, and iterate together to ensure our employees \u2014 and ultimately our customers \u2014 are successful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The workplace is continuously evolving \u2014 and never more so than in the past few years.
