Got too big

Pros

The product was well liked by their customers. Many customers fought hard in their company to keep Slack. Salesforce is a good company and tries to do the right thing.

Cons

Sales management was very negative. There is no positive feedback or coaching. It is a constant beat down. Salesforce got so big that the right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing between Slack and Salesforce. Slack Regional Managers would often complain about Salesforce and its employees on team calls.

Pros

Everyone is so nice and willing to help their teammates.

Cons

I have been told I could work from anywhere, but this is not the reality. We have to go to the office every week unfortunately.

Pros

- culture is second to none - my manager is amazingly competent, helpful, fun - and I’ve had terrible experiences with previous managers - the product is by far the best one I’ve worked with in my 5 years of professional experiences - the tone of all meetings are fun and not like the normal robot drone tone I’ve become accustomed to in previous companies - good salary and benefits - Salesforce acquisition opened up our total addressable market

Cons

- Salesforce “harmonization” still in process (ie 2 different Okta’s, Highspots just merged) - Salesforce AE’s don’t really know what we do yet because SF didn’t set up/ use Slack well, which makes it hard to break into their pipeline - overwhelming with all the Slack channels and so much content (but also a good thing)
