Pros

I've been with Slalom for nearly four years, having moved to the UK office from the US in July of 2017. This office, as with most at Slalom, is filled with passionate, empathetic, like-minded individuals who are dedicated to each other and to the success of our clients. Given the relative newness of the market, there is an air of excitement in these days of early growth, and a tremendous opportunity to shape the business in the UK and Europe.

Cons

It's not for everyone. The people who fit best here are autonomous, experienced, and okay having ownership over their projects and relationships. Especially in this time of new growth and development, this responsibility requires creative thinking, a nimble approach, and an open mind for how things *could* be, not how they've always been.

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
