Pros
All pros and cons are from my perception or experience while working at Slalom: - There's some flexibility to drive your career where you want, but you'll also be required to maintain "check the box" expectations based on your role to a fault...Given this, you'll have to overextend to grow expertise outside of your role, leading to burnout - and this is only becoming more prominent as Slalom grows and becomes more corporate. More corporate tends to equal "stay in your box" and less room for to take a path less traveled. - There are still some great people here, despite them becoming harder to find as Slalom continues to grow.
Cons
All pros and cons are from my perception or experience while working at Slalom: - Slalom has seemed to have lost the plot on their core values. Slalom seems to be growing without much of a strategy, except to follow in other large consulting firms footsteps. As Slalom grows, their differentiation has dwindled. - Less competitive pay and benefits compared to other Big 4 / established consulting firms. - Lots of "drinking the kool-aid"...to a point where, ironically, colleagues tend to come off less genuine to fit themselves into the mold. - Some Senior Leadership did not practice the core values that they preached. Lots of smoke and mirrors.
