Pros

One of the biggest pros I see about working at Slack is how supportive they are to those of us with families. I am a working parent and have felt very supported during SIP, having all of my children home with me. I feel that management cares about me as a whole person, not just what I can provide to the business.

Cons

I've seen plenty of new leadership have really bumpy transitions onto their team.

Pros

We use our own platform at Slack which not only empowers remote work, but allows us to still feel connected to our colleagues from potentially hundreds of miles away. Weekly skills development sessions keeps you accountable for career growth. Some companies only talk the talk when it comes to company culture, but Slack actually walks the walk. I have not come across one person who wasn't extremely welcoming and happy to help. Clear growth plans for career development with frequent check-ins to make sure you're on track to hitting your goals.

Cons

Onboarding remotely can be tough but that's the case for any company during the Pandemic.
