Salesforce's Marc Benioff causes an uproar by suggesting in a leaked internal Slack message that new employees are less productive
"How do we increase the productivity of our employees at Salesforce," Benioff asked in an internal Slack message viewed by Insider."New employees are especially facing much lower productivity."
Benioff suggested possible causes including remote work. Previously, Benioff slammed return-to-work orders, but appears to have changed his tune recently,"Is this a reflection of our office policy?" Benioff wrote."Are we not building tribal knowledge with new employees without an office culture?" Hundreds of employees responded to Benioff's Slack message, many of them pushing back on the premise that new employees are less productive."How are we defining productivity," one employee wrote in a comment with hundreds of positive reactions. Likewise for similar responses from other employees, such as"Can we see the data?"
"Are our managers not directly addressing productivity with their teams?," Benioff also asked in the Slack message."Are we not investing enough time into our new employees? Do managers focus enough time and energy on onboarding new employees & achieving productivity? Is coming as a new employee to salesforce too overwhelming? Asking for a friend.
