      5 Stars pre-acquisition, but the experience under Salesforce has declined significantly

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Decent pay (Far better compensation when Slack was independent) - Unlimited Pay - Excellent WLB - Slack-specific (not Salesforce) is phenomenal. Everyone is so unbelievably kind. - World-class product with a ton of potential for growth

      Cons

      - Overbearing, less than stellar Salesforce culture - A ton of uncertainty regarding the company's goals/direction under Salesforce - The combination of layoffs and attrition has lead to A TON of incredible talent leaving and leading to significant loss in cultural and institutional knowledge Ultimately Slack went from being a phenomenal place to work to just ok which is truly a shame. It's still a good enough place to work but it's never going to be what it was pre-Salesforce acquisition.

      Uncertain Future for Slack

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      **Best benefits of my entire career (10+ former employers) **Employee Stock Purchase Plan **$100 monthly wellness stipend **6 month baby benefit (full pay for either parent) **Executive access at customer accounts **Billions spent annually on marketing, customer events, etc.

      Cons

      **Owned by Salesforce **Salesforce has 70 Skus - very noisy, customers worn out from constant selling **4 days a week in office (non-negotiable unless outside of major metro area) **Salesforce customers reluctant to migrate to Slack, SFDC sellers also reluctant to pitch it, include it in their deals (this could change in time) **Slack leadership has left the building (+ Bret Taylor who drove Slack acquisition)

      Pros

      Good benefits package overall. Good brand name

      Cons

      The salesforce acquisition killed culture internally and took away all sense of community and enjoyment of the company.
