      Pros

      Best-in-class software to work on, down-to-Earth collaboration, smart people, good diversity.

      Cons

      Speed has been cranked up at the cost of quality lately. Timelines are regularly changed, it's kind of a go-with-the-flow environment, can mean more work.

      Pros

      Good benefits Good employee purchase stock program through salesforce

      Cons

      - you are just a number - management doesn't care about you - onboarding was a joke - you are at the mercy of what team you are placed on. People at my same level were closing 100k deals making a ton of commission, but our team was scratching and clawing for 20k deals. - you talk IT security all day. its not a fun sale. it's painfully boring.

      Pros

      Slack blew me away when I started back in 2020. The people, culture, leadership, the way the company used their own tool for internal communication — it was truly remarkable! There are lovely colleagues, the product is amazing and the brand is really strong. It’s normal that systems and processes change after acquisitions but Slack in particular seems to have a lot of issues adapting.

      Cons

      Things changed after the acquisition by salesforce. Slack the company itself but also sales and marketing teams go constantly through changes and you feel like you can’t catch up and do your job properly. Work-life-balance is becoming worse with leadership increasing pressure while not proving strategic guidance nor clear direction. Promotions in the international teams (outside US) are extremely rare and difficult to get. Growth opportunities are rare. Lack of coaching and support from leadership to develop your career — managers only do the bare minimum the company tells them to do with their directs on a quarterly basis
