      Pros

      CEO to VP to Sales to Customer Experience - everyone is super accessible, focused on working together to make the best product. Also, D&I isn't a checkbox here, people actually care about diversity, inclusion and belonging.

      Cons

      It's a small company. There will be resource constraints that will require zero ego and nice humans to solve.

      A real sense of belonging and purpose

      Senior technical program manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The purpose behind each initiative is very clear, focused and directional. The energy is positive and inclusive. New hires are welcomed and working remotely is a breeze because of the thoughtfulness that goes into setting up team members for success.

      Cons

      Naturally there are a number of organizational growing pains with this kind of trajectory. If you are not keen to be part of organizing yourself and teams into a way that scales up, and instead you want things to be already well established (read: orderly, one tidy package) even before you arrive, then it might not be the place for you. Frankly, I find it really motivating and energizing so I wouldn't list this as a "con" for myself.

We are especially happy to hear the transition to working remotely has gone so smoothly - we have to give it up for our AMAZING Learning & Development team for all of their efforts there. We certainly have a lot more building to do and we are thankful to have you onboard for it. Thanks again for leaving this feedback!

      Sell for Slack :heart-eyes:

      Senior account executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Slack is an amazing company to work for and specifically sell for. I always tell people it’s a dream product to sell as a sales person. I’ve never sold a product that people love so much or that really changes how a company operates. Sales leadership is incredibly supportive and the entire organization is willing to help close more deals. I’ve had our CEO, CFO, CTO all send emails or speak directly with my customers. I’ve never worked at a company where senior leadership is so willing to help. Work life balance is very important to the company and I feel very fulfilled selling for slack.

      Cons

      Competition is heating up which isn’t necessarily a con - it’s justifying our market. The ramp can be tricky for new people since it’s a complex enterprise sale.
