I have a theory that for a lot of companies Slack is a negative ROI. I find myself having to turn Slack off to avoid being constantly interrupted by notifications. But on the flipside I also find myself having to go back and read through tons of messages incase there are a few important messages that I need to know about.
Slack is just faster, less effective email.

On the other hand if every PM in the company can ping engineers on a whim then obviously there can be problems.
