CEO of multibillion-dollar company Slack to employees amid coronavirus: 'Don't stress about work.' (via CNBCMakeIt)

"I want to repeat with a little more emphasis something I already said: don't stress about work."CEO Stewart Butterfield in an all-staff memo, which he revealed on Twitter on Wednesday.

As the COVID-19 pandemic spreads throughout the United States and the world, Butterfield told employees on Friday , "We got this. Take care of yourselves, take care of your families, be a good partner. It is fine to work irregular or reduced hours. It is fine to take time out when you need it," he said.

Butterfield said he has seen colleagues' children on video calls, and "that's as it should be. We can afford to be a little more casual right now and everyone is going to be understanding and tolerant — we're all people, and we're all in this together," he said. His message to staff comes as the pandemic has ushered in a period of rapid growth for the messaging app company. As businesses around the world quickly transitioned to remote work to "flatten the curve" of coronavirus' spread, Slack became an increasingly essential communication tool and landed big accounts, Butterfield said.
