Slack is a collaboration hub for teamwork, where the right people are always kept in the loop and key information is always at their fingertips. Work in Slack happens in channels, so all the right people can be included, all relevant information kept in one place, and new team members are able to get up to speed easily. With Slack, teams are better connected.

Smart, hardworking, humble, collaborative — these are the attributes we look for in people. They're attributes we employ every day in...

Slack is a collaboration hub for teamwork, where the right people are always kept in the loop and key information is always at their fingertips. Work in Slack happens in channels, so all the right people can be included, all relevant information kept in one place, and new team members are able to get up to speed easily. With Slack, teams are better connected.

Smart, hardworking, humble, collaborative — these are the attributes we look for in people. They're attributes we employ every day in our work together: we’re building a platform and products we believe in — knowing there is real value to be gained from helping people, wherever they are, simplify whatever it is that they do and bring more of themselves to their work.

We’re building a strong, diverse team of curious, creative people who want to find a purpose in their work and support each other in the process. We work hard and we play to win… within normal business hours. And then we go home.

That balance is important: It enables us to truly do the best work of our lives. As a result, we create a place where all kinds of work happens — and happens well — all while working alongside people we respect and admire. Come check us out at www.slack.com

The interview process was very tough but the pay is a rewarding payoff in the end. You are promoted quickly but then there is no where to go from there.

solid place to work - most people are very smart and willing to help. leadership changes objectives a lot but it does depend on what team you are. Overall good, but seems to be going down hill
Business Development Manager in San Diego, CA

I love working for Slack as a company and generally love the product and the company's mission to create a Digital HQ. However, there is little to no direction from senior leadership and managers tend to shift metrics and goals very often without informing their employees. This is very frustrating as it is difficult to tell how you're doing in any given role.
Manager in San Francisco, CA

Startup mentality, over allocated staff, long days, little appreciation for efforts, inconsistent messaging from top down, low maturity as an organization, burnout, history of high attrition, likely due to leadership issues and over allocation of resources without extra compensation. Elitist attitude toward coworkers and lack of support and recognition from coworkers and leadership. Extreme focus ...

Like any Tech company in San Francisco, there are a lot of perks but Slack has a laid back work environment that allows you to do you job and be creative.I can't wait until Covid allows us to all go back to work!
