      Sell for Slack :heart-eyes:

      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.

      Pros

      Great product Great benefits Opportunities for advancement

      Cons

      Slack has been advertising their remote friendly environment and have been doing a ton of press on their remote-friendly culture and how moving forward employees will be able to be remote. However, reading the fine print this option is only for a small subset of roles, with many roles (who could do their work remotely) not even having the option to apply to be remote.
