Narrative:
Conducted a routine safe flight from ZZZ to ZZZZ on. I was contacted by gatekeeper representative regarding this flight. We completed our duties/checklist in accordance with company policies and procedures outlined in the fom and had no indication of a faulty or inoperative over-wing slide. The aircraft was found to have had multiple faulty/inoperative over-wing emergency slides; which was discovered by company maintenance personnel. Again; we had no cockpit indication of these faults. The flight was completed safely with no issues.
