Pros

It's hard to put into words just how much Slalom has changed my life. I was burnt out and probably suffering from a little PTSD after 3 years in a Big 4 consulting environment. Slalom has been a breath of fresh air - from a work life balance standpoint, but also in terms of how colleagues treat each other. At Slalom I feel valued as a human being. Im encouraged to pursue hobbies and interests outside of work, and colleagues are invested in my success in all facets of life. When I first joined, Slalom was a way point for exiting consulting. Now it's the place I want to spend the remainder of my career.

Cons

As the firm grows, I'd love to see management continue to improve benefits. PTO and 401K match increases would certainly be appreciated. That said, I feel like Slalom is pretty close to the industry average in this regard.

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
