It really depends on which company you're in.
Big companies where IT is considered a cost center and day-to-day users have no say in their tools will be using Teams, partly because they have no choice but also because for a lot of them the standard is already Windows and "Skype For Business" and they legitimately don't know how much better other tools are.
In smaller companies where day-to-day users have a say in their tools, Teams would absolutely not fly, especially when said users most likely have experience with better tools such as Slack.

If I'm being honest, Teams and Slack are both about as bad as each other. Threading in Slack in particular is so bad as to be an active productivity killer.
