Pros

My time at Slack has been the best job of my life. I work with the kind, empathetic and incredibly smart humans who care deeply about the humans around them. Leadership carves opportunities that help team members grow and develop within the company. We truly are customer-centric, and decisions are made to support our customers and our teams.

Cons

You have to be comfortable with ambiguity and change. If you aren't then at least be open to learning.

Pros

- The culture at Slack is very inclusive. I've had imposter syndrome everywhere else I've worked. This is the first place that gives me a sense of belonging - Leadership trusts you with important work, and lets you drive it to completion. I've been doing the best work of my career here so far

Cons

- Since its a growing company, there is a lot of work to be done. This gets overwhelming at times, but is completely rewarding.

Pros

Incredible onboarding during the pandemic. Extraordinary collaboration across business units. Forward thinking technology that has a massive vision to grow. A vision for changing the way that people work and returning efficiency to businesses.

Cons

Challenges of moving beyond customers in the tech sector and getting in the door to convey the value to business leaders vs. IT tools selection.
