Google Chat is definitely a product that could use more love, but it is situated in a specific internal landscape, and grows out of it. Slack is built for a very different context, and I doubt Google would build something like that. Google simply doesn't see the world the way someone who likes Slack would (and I also doubt a large co like Google could operate out of Slack).

Plenty of corporations much larger than Google operate out of Slack.

    "plenty of corporations much larger than Google"?

    Google is the third largest company by market cap in the world. I suppose by "much larger" you mean number of employees? Walmart maybe?

    I doubt there's many out there using slack

      By market cap? Is the money using slack?

      Company size when you're talking about tools for humans makes no sense in terms of market cap.

      Plenty of companies with many more employees than Google use slack.
