I'm used to Slack at work and for communities and tried telegram at a previous job.
Telegram kind of sucks because it's hard to control who's in and who's out. It's also hard to freely join/leave channels like in slack, which is convenient for a in-company setup. Even for some topics (like Elixir and Elm which I'm in) is a little bit spammy and unorganized, which for tech stuff is fine but not for work IMO.
Also, not everyone has a work phone (I still use my old number, not sure if you can use without a mobile number).
I use telegram extensively with friends and family since whatsapp deskop sucks and I was able to convince a bunch of people to use slack because it was temporarily blocked a few times here in Brazil. Also, if you lose access to your phone (or is not on wifi), your can still use in desktop (shame on you, whatsapp)
Because of that, I also wouldn't like to mix professional/personal stuff in the same communication app.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
