Pros

- I've worked at companies with very smart people and I've worked at companies with very kind people. Slack is the first I've worked at where my peers are very much both. - Culture

Cons

- The growth of company has resulted in lots of restructuring and constant change, which in itself is not a bad thing, but is a source of stress.

Pros

- Everyone here is very friendly and easy to work with - Avocados, Fresh Fruits, Fully stock frig and snacks available - Work life balance is something they care about here. You come to work and get your work done and then you can focus on your life.

Cons

- Getting bigger and with that you have some growing pains. Some needed change and process needs to change to adapt to how big Slack is getting. There's a bit of tension between a few folks and things can be more aligned across the company in terms of certain process and decisions. The good thing is I know there are people are working on it so hopefully it's keeps getting better.
