Pros

-Slalom is a company that truly cares about its employees well-being and input. All of our company strategies and the initiatives that come from it are all based off of employee feedback and ideas. -I truly feel a sense of work-life balance here that everyone respects. -The culture is truly something special- extremely smart, talented and humble people who make coming to work very enjoyable. Many opportunities to get involved outside of typical project work- both from professional and social standpoints. The emphasis on the employee and retaining our culture is felt at all levels of leadership-including our CEO.

Cons

The 401k plan and match is not great. I don't have a problem with the benefits or PTO- but suppose an extra week would be nice since there is no distinction between sick/personal days. The HR team did a roadshow and took everyone's extremely candid feedback, and have sent out many communications that this is something being worked on, which I am confident will eventually be improved.

Thank you for posting a review. Your measured candor is much appreciated. And, as you point out, leadership and HR have heard the general feedback regarding the benefits and are working on improving that element of Slalom. It's wonderful that the Slalom culture and integrity resonate with you. Your feedback around benefits and especially your thoughts regarding keeping what makes Slalom special as we grow will be shared with leadership. If you have any additional feedback that you'd like to share, please feel free to email HR anonymously at feedback@slalom.com. Thank you

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
