Pros

Slalom has been one of the most impactful places I've had the opportunity to work at. I've been here for over a year as a Recruiter and have had an amazing experience. The company does a great job of touting its culture and local model as some of their main differentiators. They have built their culture around the idea of reaching for and realizing your vision (whatever that may be) that will help you to love your work and your life. A simple proposition, but extremely impactful and resonates with me every day. When I interviewed with Slalom, what drew me to them was the idea of a unique type of culture that aimed to be different than other companies and the idea that you could really love your work was really refreshing. The Core Values intrigued me, as well as the breadth of capabilities and services the firm provides in software engineering, big data, cloud infrastructure and customer engagement. The opportunities for career growth particularly interested me, as they leave the door open for trying different things (Analyst program to step into a consulting path, Sales, Operations, etc). The people hands down are what keep me at Slalom - being able to work with smart, passionate individuals who also love their work.

Cons

Slalom could improve their benefits/401k package. I know this is always a con, especially when speaking with candidates.

Pros

people are very kind and its a great network to then have for life

Cons

I had 5 managers in 4 years, 3 of which promised me a promotion which I never got I was strung along in a seperate global team for a year and a half and then when I finally was moved to that group they fired 80% of us it's now an up or out company and people are leaving faster than business is coming in, that's been happening for 2 yrs my mental health was so bad i had two burnouts in a single year my last manager emotionally abused me and made me feel like i was a terrible person. I left believing that was why I was fired until i chatted with another former employee of this manager work life balance WAS a thing and in the last two years it's now that consultants are also responsible for selling, travel is a non-negotiable but expectations for travel are not transparent and can impact your yearly review, straight up not enough work and then senior management will make you feel bad for it
