Pros

• The work life balance is amazing. • The people are diverse, incredibly kind, empathetic, caring, and inclusive. • As an engineer, Slack gives you both the resources you need to do your job as well as the autonomy to discover, grow, and produce. • Slack takes a chance on non-traditional engineers, and it's paying off.

Cons

For me, there are no cons. I never want to leave Slack.

Pros

Below are just a few of the many reasons why Slack is an excellent company to work for: - Intelligent, but more importantly, empathetic people - Flexibility in choosing your work - Impactful projects - Excellent work-life balance - Solid compensation

Cons

None for me personally. Some people may not like the shift in culture as the company gets bigger, but this shift is essential if Slack wants to keep growing.
