This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey.

Recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions at Salesforce are fair and based on merit. The same goes for compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, reduction in workforce, recall, training, and education.
