Hi everyone! Curious if anyone here works for Slack and can shed a little light on the culture and perhaps offer a referral for an associate brand manager position I just saw on LinkedIn. With the Salesforce acquisition are SF employees allowed to refer for Slack roles? Currently a senior analyst with 4 YOE looking to break into a branding role! Thanks in advance.

IC1, BS. SMEs are for depth, often in a narrow field. They are usually consultants that went deep. If they can't motivate the client to do the right thing using their depth they are worse than useless.
No one in a service firm can get away with being a dick. If you can't be respectful while being honest and direct, then you are an immature consultant.

Get a smarter SME. They won't have a project to support if they tick off the client. You can be right and still work with the client to help them understand how they need to move.
SMEs like this need to be straightened out. Pull their hours if need be. You control the charge code.
