      Pros

      Great office culture and teams that really believe in the Slack values! Kindness, collaboration, and craftsmanship are visible in almost every interaction you see on a daily basis. Awesome perks and a huge emphasis on a work life balance makes it a pleasure to work hard and go home at the end of the day.

      Cons

      Career and promotion paths are still in the process of being formalized, but good news is that this in being worked on a lot by management.

      Great momentum, fantastic culture

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      • Strong executive leadership pointing the company in the right direction • Best culture I've experienced so far -- the people I work with are driven yet compassionate -- we are expected to work hard and smart for 8 hours a day, then go home • Competitive compensation and benefits • Working on a product that's well known and loved by many people • Building a product that I use on a daily basis is exciting

      Cons

      • Frequent reorganizations and process changes, not surprising for a fast-growing company but could be annoying • On certain teams, there's a lot of tribal knowledge that makes it difficult for a newcomer to start contributing right away • People can be too nice to the point where difficult topics are avoided
