      Pros

      Slack has shifted to remote work well and has really supported its employees (financially and emotionally) during these trying times. The high caliber and character of everyone you work with is apparent in almost all interactions.

      Cons

      Org structures create duplicative work and make roles and responsibilities unclear and create more difficult handoffs across projects.

      Pros

      People! The team at Slack is amazing to work with! People are not only extremely smart and competent bu are also very welcoming and empathetic to one another. Fun product to develop! The product has a huge impact on people's working life and it is cool to develop. Every idea counts, even if you are a junior developer! Great work/life balance! Everyone is very aware of each other time and are concerned about people having time relax and take care of themselves. Work hours are very flexible.

      Cons

      Most employees are in the US, so sometimes, in the all hands and town halls the information shared applies more the them than to the rest of the company, which can cause a bit of confusion.
