More on the Midget-Mao Regulations at Salesforce


As a follow up to the post, Midget-Mao Regulations to Be Imposed on Returning Salesforce Employees, Scott O adds in the comments:

A friend who works at Salesforce says that it’s way worse than this post indicates.

Employees must wear a mask at all times, including when sitting at a desk or alone in a conference room. Plexiglass shields surround desks. Contact tracing is done continuously in the office. If someone who tests positive came within a certain distance of you, you may be told to quarantine. Only one person at a time may ride an elevator. Employees must schedule elevator rides in advance.

Salesforce would like everyone to get vaccinated but will not require it “at this time”.

Keep in mind, this is in addition to employees being tested for the virus twice a week.

  3. If you're a Salesforce employee not looking for another job, you're either a masochist or a true believer. Perhaps the point of these measures, to weed out the independent thinkers.

    1. When Basecamp loses a third of their staff because of their apolitical discourse policy on their company accounts, that's a good thing. It just shows that their values did not align with the company's, and they will be happier else where. At the beginning and at the end of the day, it's about work.

      If I were an entrepreneur, I would want these independent thinkers who are planning to leave Salesforce. And if they are not planning an exit, then I would not want them.

    2. Get ready to short Salesforce.

  4. Why be a Winston if life can be enjoyed more as a Prole?

  5. I love that they're doing this to themselves. I hope more of these corporate behemoths follow suit. It'll make my own recruiting easier.

  7. From an article on the website The Street:

    “Notably, Salesforce partnered up with Facebook in 2014 to bring analytics to B2B marketers.”

    That is all one needs to know about this Salesforce bunch. As Bill Hicks used to say about marketing “...minions of Satan...”

    I imagine Bill and George Carlin are having a good time watching this shit show.
