Two sources told Fortune that many Slack engineers have found workarounds via scripts, code that can be quickly built to automate a task, to click through the modules for them. Not surprisingly, the Ranger status requirement has been met with some disdain from employees at Slack. Please do use the time next week to make as much progress as you can!” Some slack engineers are gaming the system with automated scripts At a minimum, it will make Slack look bad compared to the other clouds. “We don’t know yet what will happen to people who haven’t hit Ranger by Jan. “We really are canceling all meetings next week to facilitate this heads-down time, even 1:1s,” Slack’s chief of staff to the CTO wrote to employees on Wednesday. ![]() A source said there’s modules about Amazon AWS management and how to manage your Salesforce instances. While some modules like the Fourth Industrial Revolution (which takes 20 minutes and is worth 200 points) might seem odd, there are a lot of helpful ones, too. For instance, there’s a “Fearless Teaming” module that teaches staff “how psychological safety and courage help create high-performing teams.” Completing this module earns a user 300 points and takes 45 minutes, the screenshot revealed. Each module varies in points earned toward this goal. Slack regularly experiments with ways to give its employees time to focus on company and team priorities, like reaching Ranger status.”Īccording to a screenshot viewed by Fortune, there are six ranks prior to achieving Ranger status, which requires 100 badges and 50,000 points. “This year, the entire company is working to reach Ranger status on Trailhead, Salesforce’s free online learning program, that empowers anyone to upskill in areas relevant to their roles and career goals. “Salesforce is committed to the ongoing learning and development of its employees and the broader talent ecosystem, especially with the rapid acceleration of generative AI,” a Slack spokesperson wrote in an email to Fortune. “I know this will disrupt and slow V2MOM progress for many of us-we are making this a priority now so we can quickly get back to work on our roadmaps,” she said, referring to the company’s annual forward-looking strategy planning document, which stands for vision, values, methods, obstacles, and measures. “It’s important that we all reach Ranger status this year, and I want to ensure that everyone has focus time to upskill on Trailhead,” Jones wrote in the message to staff. Jones wrote in her message that the product development engineering (PDE), customer experience (CE), Biz Ops, and communication departments are expected to participate in Ranger Week.
