Pros

Great, smart, people. Lots to learn and develop. Corporate values that are very personally compatible with people who actually want to solve interesting problems, and a well balanced culture that matches the external image.

Cons

Hard to find! Sometimes the fast pace of the work and product releases is disorienting, but there's always an answer or a reason for the tough times.

Pros

I started working with Slack remotely during COVID and was surprise to see how smooth their remote onboarding process was, even though like every other company it was not a standard practice few months back. Co-workers are very helpful and respectful of each others views which as a new member made me feel comfortable. Leadership has been nothing but thoughtful during these weird times and the culture here is one of the best I have experienced. Teams are ready and eager to learn new things and find our new ways to improve the product.

Cons

Being a rapidly growing company project priorities keeps changing and you may have to jump to something more important at hands which is not that bad but might be frustrating for some people

Pros

- Unlike many other tech companies, Slack cares and treats its employees like human beings. - Super friendly culture, and the most diverse by far (people of multiple different backgrounds, ethnicities, nationalities, etc). - Generous compensation and benefits

Cons

so far, none that I can think of
