#SLACK EMOJIS NO LONGER LOADING SKIN#

We believe SadaPay is shaped by the people within it and it shows in how fast our employees become part of our custom Slack emojis and how they stay there as part of the company’s legacy. When you’re working across borders and timezones, it can be hard to keep track of who’s available, who’s out sick, who’s vacationing, and who’s running on their last bar of battery.īut we stay on top of it! We use the emojis in our Slack statuses to let each other know if we’re available for a chat or wrestling a bear under a waterfall in the middle of nowhere.Įvery person on our team contributes a great deal to both the culture and the work we do and these relationships we build with each other transcend space, for sure, what with our remote-first culture, but also time. Simply assign emojis to versions of the design and vote to see which one everyone agrees on. We extend this to creative decision-making as well. Sounds ridiculous, right? 🤡įind my lengthy thoughts in the thread below Imagine jotting down each of them or counting them down on your fingers to see if a unanimous decision has been made. Imagine sharing a whole game plan with your teammates and having to read through hundreds of responses to decipher which of them agree with you and which of them. SadaPay is made up of highly collaborative teams of driven individuals that make decisions within themselves 💪. We replace lengthy texts with simple emojis.

SadaPay embraces emojis as part of regular vernacular to communicate these things without the need to send a long “I’m working on it” or “I’m taking a look at the document you just sent.” In a fast-paced remote-first landscape you can’t always just look up at your teammate and know what they’re up to, whether or not they’ve read your messages or how many in your team have done the task you’ve asked them to. Emojis are an integral part of the SadaPay culture and our ever-evolving relationship with each other.

But did you know that this culture is not skin deep? It extends far beyond our public image and into our daily interactions within the workplace. It is no secret that at SadaPay we embrace the informality of emojis in our relationship with our SadaFam.

Some things it communicates so badly that we never attempt to communicate them by words if any other medium is available.” – C.S. “Language exists to communicate whatever it can communicate.
