At Tribeat’s Tech Division, we work across both Tokyo and Sapporo, with hybrid work as part of our setup. To stay connected and build relationships beyond physical distance, we use Slack as our main communication hub.

Slack isn’t just for project updates — we also have channels for casual chats, knowledge sharing, and nurturing our team culture.

Casual Channels

We believe that trust between people is the foundation of teamwork, not just project-based interactions. That’s why we have a wide range of casual channels in addition to work-focused ones.

During our Welcome Meeting for new members, we introduce the list of chat channels so people can easily join those that match their interests. None of them require posting, and not every channel is buzzing every day. Instead, they offer a natural space where you can drop a comment and get a light response, keeping communication easy and relaxed.

A few examples of casual channels:
