Pros
The culture is super supportive and everyone is so nice! Most people genuinely care about the product and what they are working on. Many projects are bottom up instead of top down, it's a great place to learn and grow.
Cons
Being too nice could cause indirect communication and lacking of constructive feedback.
Advice to Management
Provide more department level guidance and direction of focus.

Slack is a place where you have can really do your best work. There's lots of room for growth both within and across departments, the people are amazing, the space itself is immaculate, the culture is vibrant and inclusive, and there's no shortage of challenge.

Things move quickly! If change is tough for you to handle, this probably isn't a great fit.
Advice to Management
You're wonderful, amazing humans. Keep doing what you're doing. :-)

Pros
Management is supportive and invested in your professional and personal growth. Company's values are on point and genuinely followed by many if not all who work here. lots of awesome perks including some free meals during the week and some funds for professional and personal development courses. coworkers are awesome; helpful, supportive and encouraging.
Cons
still quite a young company so hard to say how they'll maintain their current values and culture
