Pros

Good pay Good benefits Good company values (manager has a different view that does not align with the company btw)

Cons

Manager has unrealistic deadlines Manager implementations are irrelevant to the workflow of Salesforce operations Manager has NO experience in Salesforce and avoids to advice (which is odd and probably explains why manager can't help) Manager claims to be generalist or at least implementa that ideal Manager puts the whole team down Manager is disrespectful and demands without awareness
