Pros

Almost everyone that works here is dedicated, smart, and thoughtful. Projects are often very impactful and give great visibility to leadership. I feel that I have excellent work/life balance and I am able to be flexible with demands at home (I have a 3 yr old).

Cons

This is not the place for someone who doesn't deal well with ambiguity. As a young thriving startup, we are still working on setting foundational process and methods in place and this requires great patience as well as endurance/stamina to be able to get through projects and initiatives without all the concrete foundation that an older company has.

Pros

Some of the best people I've ever worked with in my life. A product known and loved worldwide.

Cons

Favoritism, management strategies changing at the drop of a hat, sabotage.

Pros

I moved to California in order to work for Slack. I'm impressed with the executive leadership and the engineers are the best I've worked with. I've been here two years and I expect to stick around for many more.

Cons

Remote opportunities are rare and the perks aren't as lavish as larger competitors.
