ping me means "Send me a message on Slack/Teams when you need me." Has fully replaced "email me" for anything under an hour's attention. It's mostly used in workplace and corporate conversation. It's casual and generally safe with friends and online. It's standard online vocabulary; nothing inherently concerning about hearing it.
