Pros

Free climate and easy to communicate.

Cons

It was great before the acquisition, including benefits, but the integration with Salesforce made everything worse.

Pros

If you are looking for a fast moving tech company that works with the best tech tools, hires amazing people, lets us do our work without micromanaging - Slack is it. Incredible company with a transformational vision. The leaders do what they say and live the values every day. Work 2 days in the office, and no one monitors. No need to come in at all if you dont want to. I want to come in because its fun, the offices are beautiful with views over Darling Harbour and a barista on-site. The onboarding training I received was the best I have ever seen. So thorough. You get to learn about Tableau, Mulesoft, Salesforce, Quip, Troops and form strong bonds with your Slack cohort. Lots of opportunity to learn from colleagues through Slack channels - from San Fran to New York, India, South East Asia. Global outlook.

Cons

There is a lot of information to learn. Its not a con, but just prepare to be dazzled.

Pros

- culture is second to none - my manager is amazingly competent, helpful, fun - and I’ve had terrible experiences with previous managers - the product is by far the best one I’ve worked with in my 5 years of professional experiences - the tone of all meetings are fun and not like the normal robot drone tone I’ve become accustomed to in previous companies - good salary and benefits - Salesforce acquisition opened up our total addressable market

Cons

- Salesforce “harmonization” still in process (ie 2 different Okta’s, Highspots just merged) - Salesforce AE’s don’t really know what we do yet because SF didn’t set up/ use Slack well, which makes it hard to break into their pipeline - overwhelming with all the Slack channels and so much content (but also a good thing)
