Pivotal Alumni Slack Code of Conduct & Community Guidelines

Last Updated: 6/8/2023

Welcome to the Pivotal Alumni Slack! This is a space for Pivots to connect, network, share knowledge, and support each other.

To ensure that this is a safe and respectful community for all, we ask all members to abide by this Code of Conduct.

Who Can Join?

This community is for anyone who worked for Pivotal before it was acquired by VMware on December 31st, 2019.

Core Values

Be Kind, Do the Right Thing, and Do What Works.

Unacceptable Behavior

In this community, we have a zero tolerance policy for:

• Harassment of any kind including unwanted sexual advances, bullying, or any other behavior that makes someone feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
• Discrimination based on race, gender, gender identity, age, religion, disability, or any other personal characteristic.
• Hate speech, or any language that incites hatred or promotes violence against any individual or group.

Report Concerns

If you witness or experience any behavior that violates our Code of Conduct, please report it to the administrators immediately. You can find us in #admin-help, or you can reach out to any one of us individually - your admins are:

• Can Berk Güder (@Can Berk Güder)
• Daniella Corricelli (@Daniella Corricelli)
• David Randall (@dr)
• Edie Beer (@Edie Beer)
• Michael McGinley (@Michael McGinley)
• Rachel Kroft (@kroft)
• Zach Larson (@zach)

We take all reports seriously and will take appropriate action for any behavior that violates this Code of Conduct, including removal of members and channels from the community.

Please note that this is an unofficial “Pivotal” community. Meaning this is run by volunteers and is not sponsored. This also means that although the admins will take reports of abuse seriously, there are no employment laws governing this group. We are a collection of individuals who share a bond in our employment history.

By joining the Pivotal Alumni Slack community, you agree to abide by this Code of Conduct.

Thank you for helping to maintain a safe and respectful community!
