Pros

Good work life balance.... As long as you don't have to work in a global team with east coast/West coast hours. On top of your UK hours.

Cons

90+ percent of people have had no paysise in two years, not even nominal. UK competitors are posting high single digit, low double digit growth. Slalom is declining at a face faster than the UK competitors are growing. The answer lies in leadership and strategy, and the ever changing Modus Operandi.

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
