Company mission
To make the workplace a source of learning and purpose through knowledge-sharing.
Our take
As companies grow, it becomes more difficult to track the most important information internally and harder to provide employees with up-to-date information and training. Slab aims to turn everything into a searchable database to enable easier organisation and access of information.
The platform enables companies to create, organize, discover knowledge and share documents between employees, and can be integrated with other tools such as Dropbox and Google Drive.
Since being founded the company is now relied upon by more than 7000 companies including Asana, Fivetran and Glossier.

The team is globally remote and always has been, so the management style tends to be hands-off. We all work very independently and are more comfortable that way.
