Slack is committed to shaping the future of distributed work. Whether that means working from one of their offices, having the flexibility to work from home a few days a week or working remotely on a permanent basis, they’re providing more choices to employees for where they can do their best work.
Slack has transformed business communication. It’s the leading channel-based messaging platform, used by millions to align their teams, unify their systems, and drive their businesses forward. Only Slack offers a secure, enterprise-grade environment that can scale with the largest companies in the world. It is a new layer of the business technology stack where people can work together more effectively, connect all their other software tools and services, and find the information they need to do their best work.
