      Pros

      Wonderful, smart, and humble co-workers; Lots of improvements to make as we scale; Inspirational company that offers above and beyond benefits and culture to prioritize family, mental health, and great work.

      Cons

      Odd dynamic between recruiting and other parts of the business. Definitely need to optimize to improve the effectiveness of recruiting. Interesting groups of people with various perspectives depending on tenure at Slack.

      People First Mentality

      Senior manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I interviewed during Covid and was concerned about switching organizations during a tough time. The people during the interview process came off sincere and shared the value of people first. I have months in and this is very true.

      Cons

      Very steep learning curve. If you have not worked in Slack full time, it can be very overwhelming. It is a very different way of working.

      Most incredible place to work!

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Incredible culture (which is still evident even while working remote - I personally joined the team mid-pandemic) - Very competitive pay - Management actually *wants* to be in management, and cares about team development as their top priority (have worked at other SaaS companies where this was not the case) - Great work life balance (ex/ Fri-yay days off) - Set up to succeed in terms of resources (given $1,000 USD for home office set up), also given $ for wifi bills etc - Everyone in the company is so friendly and willing to help (we have 1:1s set up with other employees from other teams/offices, and everyone is truly so open to meeting and learning from one another/just chatting to ensure that we are all feeling heard during these trying times)

      Cons

      - Can't think of any... can't wait to eventually get into the office hopefully summer of 2021!
