Pros

Shared excitement and vision for the future of work. Really transparent organization!

Cons

Lots of transition and kinks to work out as we've gotten larger very quickly. However leadership is aware of it and focused on what matters - employees and the bottom line (in that order).

Amazing Company

Pros

I love Slack's focus on people. This manifests both in the focus we place on our customers - taking customer service really seriously, responding to every tweet, focusing on building delightful experiences - but also in how we treat each other as employees and coworkers. There is a level of respect and courtesy that is really special and leads to a really inclusive and supportive working environment. I also appreciate the balance that Slack provides. It's an enterprise software company that has a deep focus on building a human experience. It's a start up that values work life balance. We're passionate about what we're doing, but also realistic and levelheaded.

Cons

There are downsides to working at startups, but with that comes the opportunity to build something from the start.

Pros

1) Great company culture: Slack is the most inclusive and diverse place I've worked at so far. 2) Collaborative approach to building the product: everyone is providing input and feedback to help us make the product better. The level of empathy and craftsmanship from employees across the various functions is impressive. 3) Growth trajectory: we've been growing our metrics and our people and that creates career opportunities.

Cons

Our processes change every few months to reflect our growth.
