Pros

1. Used to have great culture 2. Used to be people first

Cons

1. Layoffs Last year layoffs were necessary and understandable but it doesnt stop there. People have been let go continuously after 3 months of bench rule which was introduced after layoffs, although it was promised that this is based on market conditions, I know many who were let go and these are the best talented people to work with. If you see anyone coming out of Slalom layoff, grab them! They are super talented! I hear layoff news every other day from literally every other market, also both local and build. I don't expect management to do anything about this as this is intentional. 2. There is no people culture anymore. As Slalom is pushing hard on AI and other changes to meet the new needs of market, Slalom has left behind it's people. 3. Used to be the best working place competing against the likes of facebook and Apple but not anymore after mid 2023. I dont see any changes in the near future.

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
