Pros

- Has a culture that is more "woke" compared to others. As a company it's been trying to actively foster an environment that is open to feedback and change. - Great benefits during WFH

Cons

- Most of management in Sales is from Salesforce, Dropbox, Box, where they have worked with each other in the past - You can be promoted here to an entirely new pay grade with zero merit increase which is shocking

Pros

Slack operates like a start-up in many ways. You can have impact, make changes without bureaucracy, and work in a fast-paced environment. At the same time, Slack has the stability and work/life balance of a bigger company. I've been able to learn a ton during my time here.

Cons

We are definitely still figuring things out and building. Things are often ambiguous, and part of the fun is figuring out how to operate in ambiguous situations.

Pros

- I've worked at companies with very smart people and I've worked at companies with very kind people. Slack is the first I've worked at where my peers are very much both. - Culture

Cons

- The growth of company has resulted in lots of restructuring and constant change, which in itself is not a bad thing, but is a source of stress.
