We're all in this together!

Pros

We're working on a mission that matters. People spend so much time at work, and a lot don't really like their jobs, so anything we can do to bring some magic, fun, and simplicity to their lives feels good! The exec team is in this for the long-haul and they're fully values driven. Things are not political.

Cons

As the fastest growing B2B software company ever, growth expectations are incredibly high. As a company we're still figuring out goal-setting, because we're still relatively new and growing so fast. This can make it challenging to benchmark performance.

Pros

Great culture, supportive teams, leadership has clear and good direction on how to grow. I am never the smartest person in the room, which is excellent, as I'm constantly learning from others here. Slack values its employees, and places a high emphasis and work-life balance, and making sure you are well taken care of.

Cons

If you're looking for a highly structured & corporate environment, this isn't for you. Slack is growing at a rapid pace, which brings along lots of change (sometimes good, sometimes bad), but will challenge and grow you.

Pros

Working at Slack is fast-paced, exciting, and impactful. I feel like I make a difference every day in the life of my colleagues and our customers. Slack has offered me many different opportunities to hone my craft by working with others who are the “best in the business.” There’s also a great work-life balance and smart leaders who ensure we’re on the right track.

Cons

I can’t think of a single one!
