Pros

The product is great, the salary is great, benefits are still good

Cons

After Salesforce acquired Slack, Slack lost its culture, tools were removed, job its manually, onboarding is not structured, no collaboration with Salesforce folks, a lot of asks but a lot of uncertainty, lack of transparency, higher targets but less visibility

Pros

People are friendly and supportive, available to answer questions, decent pay.

Cons

Slack disguises itself as a great place to work, but beware because there's a lot of fake personalities. The company itself has shot itself in the foot by making it harder to do your job with all of the little details and mindless features, management expects you to put on a fake persona and email customers as if you're writing a long love letter to them. They spend too much time wanting you to like them and their product so much that they miss the point of actually listening to feedback from internal teams and customers alike.
