What are the default flags and settings used in slackware to compile the
packages from source?

Any hints or guidance would be most appreciated.

Thank you.

Depends on the package. See the *build cq. *SlackBuild scripts in the
respective source dirs.
Pat doesn't use a "one size fits all" for creating the packages <grin>

Edit your /etc/profile

Ypu may add some flags thusly :

export CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
export CPPFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
export CFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"

This is an example only for my PentiumIV CPU. You will set the flags
appropriately for your CPU or you may leave them out & accept the default.
Most of the Slackware packages have i486 & some i686 flags.

FWIW, something like the following can be easier to maintain:

export CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
export CPPFLAGS=${CXXFLAGS}
export CFLAGS=${CXXFLAGS}
