      Best People I've Ever Worked With

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -The strongest sense of team and collaboration I've experienced anywhere I've worked. Slack culture is built on helping others and it makes the work easier and more enjoyable. -The company is growing so quickly there are always new problems to solve, new opportunities to take, new ways to stretch yourself and learn new things. -Slack has a customer-centric culture and that is a wonderful thing, especially for those of us on the Customer Experience team. We are seen as a value-add, not a cost center.

      Cons

      -The strong culture of collaboration can make it hard to unplug. There is always more to do and more colleagues you could help. -The product and company are changing constantly and quickly. If you don't love a new challenge literally every day, and having to learn/re-learn how things work this might not be a good fit. .

      Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts! It is so wonderful to hear that you see strong team collaboration and feel surrounded by continuous opportunity to learn and grow. We hear you, sometimes it can be difficult to unplug--we encourage you to take advantage of PTO and our monthly company Fri-yays to really relax and recharge! -Slack

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Incredible culture (which is still evident even while working remote - I personally joined the team mid-pandemic) - Very competitive pay - Management actually *wants* to be in management, and cares about team development as their top priority (have worked at other SaaS companies where this was not the case) - Great work life balance (ex/ Fri-yay days off) - Set up to succeed in terms of resources (given $1,000 USD for home office set up), also given $ for wifi bills etc - Everyone in the company is so friendly and willing to help (we have 1:1s set up with other employees from other teams/offices, and everyone is truly so open to meeting and learning from one another/just chatting to ensure that we are all feeling heard during these trying times)

      Cons

      - Can't think of any... can't wait to eventually get into the office hopefully summer of 2021!
