Pros

Joined within last year to do meaningful work to follow inspiring leaders. The experience and the learning / coaching was fantastic. I was engaged on strategic engagements doing work that inspired me. The culture of the company is team first. Leaders were what I aspired to be. And I believed i had found the holy grail.

Cons

The leaders that I joined Los Angeles to work for left leaving a void in capabilities. The ability to sell and engage top executives to do strategy work is gone, The ability to develop complex solutions that are not core Slalom capabilities is gone. Having leaders that inspire and have that old school consulting swagger is gone. New leadership doesn't have vision. The office is reactionary and scrambling to get teams staffed. This is not what I signed up for.

This is John Tobin. I would love to talk to you more about your feedback. We did have some leadership changes in the LA market and our team is committed to winning and delivering complex engagements - as well as creating a team where everyone thrives. I definitely am hearing your feedback there and with change often creates opportunity - which I'm so confident we can take advantage of so much of the good Slalom has to offer. Please send me an email at johnt@slalom.com to set up a time to speak live about any of these items or other. Alternatively, if you’d like to share more feedback anonymously (and at any time), please consider doing so via this survey: http://slalom.ws/anonsurvey.

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
