Pros

- You work with awesome, like-minded and accepting people who are driven to succeed and help you succeed - Great company culture and perks - Even starting my job with Slack from home due to Covid-19, they have been very accommodating and have made me feel like a part of the team - Transparency across management - Challenging and productive work environment - Room for growth in your role, and into others roles - Managers who want you to thrive and exceed

Cons

- You'll have to work the odd weekend shift in this role (not often tho, and you get a day in lieu). This isn't a huge con - Not much else - Slack is the best!

Pros

- Good work/life balance - A reasonably interesting product with its own set of challenges - Beautiful offices in many different countries - Quality of design matters

Cons

- Easy to hide in the organizational shadows and do very little work - Over-sensitive culture infused with strong 'woke left' narratives and not afraid to push it in your face! - Status quo management and development culture.. repeat that week's popular phrase as stated by executives and you'll do well - Heavy in the management layers - Inappropriate leveling criteria for engineers, leading to low technical competence
