If you are a corporation of that size, you shouldn't be putting all of your critical communication on someone else's servers.
- Ever since cloud became a thing companies of all sizes are filling up other people's servers.
- NIH isn't healthy either to be honest. Plus when some service fucks up, you may have legal recourse. If it's your own employees, you can fire them but won't get much money out of them.
  
  Purchase a tool and self host. You can't un-leak data no matter how much money you get.
  
  You are in charge of internal policies and can enforce them.
- Correct you are sir.
  
  Have they not heard of selfhosting?
  
  But then you need to pay employees.
  
  Slack supports self-hosting. https://api.slack.com/distribution/hosting
