Pros

I've never worked with anyone at Slalom and thought to myself, I never want to work with that person again - Slalom attracts good people. I can't say the same for past consulting firms and agencies I've worked for. I also believe that my leadership is some of the best that I've ever worked for and I am constantly challenged by the people around me.

Cons

Consulting is consulting - if you don't like, Slalom isn't going to change that for you. You're going to have tough clients, there's going to be politics, and you're going to have to work long hours sometimes. Personally, I don't think this is a con - I chose consulting, but I think some people come to Slalom thinking that it's going to be different, and while culturally it is, the work is still the same, and clients are still the same. This becomes a con when people's expectations are met, so set your expectations accordingly.

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
