Slack Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Blameless culture that focuding on supporting each other

You are active part of the growth

Workers and managers share a sense of pride in the company, and the product itself.

Commitment to diversity, lots of alignment around company vision

Review from Engineering Dept

People are friendly, but sometimes you get the sense that it's a bit artificial (i.e. we don't like to talk about problems)

Review from Engineering Dept

Like the people, the company is supportive, has tons of empathy, and is great at letting us get our work done.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Our values mean almost nothing. We need to do more than talk about them—we need to see examples from the _top_ about how to _live_ them.
