Pros

Great product Great benefits Opportunities for advancement

Cons

Slack has been advertising their remote friendly environment and have been doing a ton of press on their remote-friendly culture and how moving forward employees will be able to be remote. However, reading the fine print this option is only for a small subset of roles, with many roles (who could do their work remotely) not even having the option to apply to be remote.

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback! We are so happy to hear you are satisfied with our product, benefits and career opportunities here at Slack. We recognise having the flexibility to work from home is important. Each department, team and role is assessed for our distributed working model to ensure it makes sense for us as a business to be successful! I would suggest reaching out to your manager and department people partner to discuss this matter with them further. We are always reviewing our policies and processes to further create a good environment for our employees so appreciate this feedback. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. -Slack People Team
