Pros

Amazing atmosphere with tremendously smart people. Very diverse employee set with attention on always doing what is best. The work is exciting and challenging, there are no 'boring moments'.

Cons

Newly public company so there are a high degree of compliance requirements.

Pros

There's so much that I can write about how much I've enjoyed my time at Slack, but if I had to sum it up, it comes down to the power of the platform that we sell, and the brilliance of the people that I get to work with on a day-to-day basis. Culturally, you can't beat the employee experience. Our office is so close, regardless of the department you work in. From a career perspective, there's tons of opportunity. In my experience, our leadership team has always prioritized career growth, and I couldn't be more appreciative.

Cons

I really can't think of any. I only have the most incredible things to say.

Pros

I feel like a lot of people on the outside have this idea of what Slack is like internally and they’re generally pretty spot on. It’s a group full of creative, smart, inclusive people trying to make the world a better place. I feel genuinely supported by Stewart and our executive team down to manager level and my teammates. Slack has handled remote work incredibly and has bent over backwards to make sure their employees are okay. I feel lucky to work at a place like this and am so excited about the future of work with Slack.

Cons

Like any company, Slack has disconnected systems within sales and marketing which makes projects difficult to run end to end. But we now have dedicated resources that are helping bridge the gap.
