Pros

Slalom invests a lot time into recruiting new consultants. You can see the hype all over social media and they hire a lot of recruiters.

Cons

-The benefits are really bad. -Consulting opportunities are typically staff augmentation and not strategic. -You may have to commute very far. -Pressure to promote the company on social media (Glassdoor, Linkedin, etc). -If you are leaving a big consulting firm, you will notice that the career opportunities are very limited.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
