How’s working at Slack?

How is the culture and work life at Slack? I’m assuming it’s changing after the Salesforce acquisition. Did Slack also have layoffs? Is it worth considering a jump there from Google for a pay and level bump? TC: 400k

Slack did have a layoff

The question simply put is how much can you slack off?

Slack v2_kid Mar 6, 2023

Culture is cool. Folks are smart and generally helpful. We had layoff yes.

I’d love to work at Slack / Discord once to understand the scale and problems. It would be super interesting and challenging.

Slack is a great product and Salesforce was a great employer for a long time. Things have definitely changed, but so has google, amazon, msft. If you are curious about how a global communication’s company solves problems, it might be a good opportunity to learn .

Will slack and zoom merge?

Salesforce sf_dino Mar 7, 2023

@zoom Not likely, slack has mirrored most of the functionality that zoom provides at this point, so a merger would not make sense. Zoom is still a best in class product though, and I wish yall best of luck competing with Microsoft and google monopolies!
