Pros

Slack is a high-velocity, awesomely creative, friendly place to work, and one of the best jobs I've had. Truly inspired by the dedication to the product and proud to say I'm an employee. I really enjoy: great engineering talent, well-reasoned decisions, a multitude of perks and good balance of right brained thinkers. We have a lot of opportunity in front of us and we're still in the building phase of the company so there is a lot to do and learn professionally and personally.

Cons

Scaling fast is exciting, but experiencing some growing pains along the way. A key leader is being irresponsible with use of power and introducing Yahoo-like politics. I believe some teams suffer from this more than others.
