#SLACK EMOJIS NO LONGER LOADING PROFESSIONAL#

Yes, classifying the emojis can be seen as a professional deformation, but let’s try it out: As a search expert, I’d like to classify them with a formal taxonomy. After a few years of collaboration using Slack, our thirst for personalization became intimately related to the number of custom emojis we create in Slack (with a whopping 4,192 Coveo custom emojis, we’d need an encyclopedia to break them all down). The need for personalization is something we obviously acknowledge. This was revealed when the need to personalize content arose. And it turns out that our longstanding emoji usage was actually a symptom of something bigger. The excessive usage of emojis in the workplace has always been an important part of Coveo culture. Jira: If they haven’t proved to be wonderful enough already, emojis can also be used as a tagging system.They rule the corporate messaging universe. Slack: Obviously, Slack is based on emojis, just like the internet has been built for cats and lasers.When you scan an infinite list of emails, the slightest cluster of coloured pixels can bring joy into your daily job. Email: This one is probably less common, as emails are considered more formal or official.PowerPoint: How could you present something to the entire company if you don’t properly express the purpose of your feature?.It may be one of the reasons why we find them in:

They are understood by everyone, even without formal knowledge in the emoji language, which is convenient for a company that is half French, half English speaking. In their purest form, emojis are a simple way to express emotions in a textual channel of communication. Bear with me as I unleash the true fundamental laws that shape our corporate culture. This is my tribute to the Coveo emoji culture, and at the same time, a walkthrough for the newcomers.

There is a key part of the Coveo life, kind of a magic ingredient, that binds it all together: Emojis 😁! This magic obviously happens in our workplace, thanks to meetings, coffees, and even whiteboard sessions. We release some features that change the whole industry, we meet awesome people, and we collaborate to shape the future of the company. It is challenging, rewarding, and it helps bring your personal skills to another level. Working at a high tech company like Coveo is something amazing.
