      A great place to work! But negotiate hard.

      Pros

      An excellent product to work on, with a company that doesn't just value diversity but actually hires for it, and tons of opportunities to explore different areas of problem-solving at a rapidly growing company.

      Cons

      - The "nice" effect - some people shy away from giving honest, hard feedback, instead focusing on being perceived as 'nice' we're getting better, though. - The hiring process is a bit of a mess: from leveling to compensation ("we don't negotiate offers" - HA! Negotiate EVERYTHING, people), you'll have to negotiate the hiring waters carefully if you're lucky enough to be a part of this team.

      Strong alignment across leadership, transparency, open communication and supportive culture. Slack creates a culture that enables collaboration, feedback and supports employees in any way that it can. I feel so lucky to work here alongside amazing coworkers and leaders.

      Cons

      None I can think of!
