Teams like tumblr are making a big trade-off. One of Slack’s killer features is its search function’s ability to dig up relevant conversations at the tap of a mouse. Organizations that use Slack end up breaking down silos and creating world class documentation of their work. Having a living, searchable, transcript, is key to delivering on that promise. By deleting history, you’re giving up a big piece of the upside.
Pick An Industry, Not A Job
If you want to become good at something, you need to spend years and years doing that. You can’t do that if you hop from industry to industry. Pick an industry you love and start at the bottom. You will find the perfect role for you eventually.
