Lots of enterprise companies demand full control over all things. Its not uncommon at all.

It's not uncommon, but it's uncommon around here.

It's certainly one of my major griefs with Slack. I don't want my entire company's internal communications to be hosted by some third party startup I can't at all trust.

I would say this traditionally case but I think things are slowly changing even in the Enterprise world, where they too are starting to realise it's not realistic to be good at everything as well as their employees demanding better services.

Unlucky. We used Slack at the last three companies I worked for.

You can't be a very loyal employee given that Slack has been out for less than 2 years.

I'm not. I'm a consultant.
