Salesforce
Salesforce, the Customer Success Platform and world's #1 CRM, empowers companies to
connect with their customers in a whole new way. The company was founded on three
disruptive ideas: a new technology model in cloud computing, a pay-as-you-go business
model, and a new integrated corporate philanthropy model. These founding principles have
taken our company to great heights, including being named one of Forbes’s “World’s Most
Innovative Company” ten years in a row and one of Fortune’s “100 Best Companies to Work
For” nine years in a row. We are the fastest growing of the top 10 enterprise software
companies, and this level of growth equals incredible opportunities to grow a career at
Salesforce. Together, with our whole Ohana (Hawaiian for "family") made up of our
employees, customers, partners and communities, we are working to improve the state of the
world.
