Pros

Great people, local work with no travel, fun activities to keep social interaction up.

Cons

Travel can sometimes be long distances, but not often. The work is not always challenging, and you are not always placed with your skill set. There is still staff aug.

Meaningful Consulting Work

Pros

In over a decade in the consulting industry, the work I've been doing since joining slalom last year has been the most interesting and meaningful client work in my career

Cons

The slalom business model requires a local market to start up and grow organically around the clients and industries prevalent in that market. With this model, there are start up pains and growing pains that every market must go through. This is probably the root cause of some of the negative opinions of the consulting work on Glassdoor. Slalom markets must achieve a maturity level that supports better projects, better clients, better opportunities for growth and promotion within the market.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It's wonderful that your time with Slalom has comprised the most interesting and meaningful client work of your career. You're absolutely right about the Slalom model; it requires markets to grow their own client base. Your feedback regarding not changing the above-mentioned model will be passed along to leadership. If you have any additional feedback that you'd like to share, please feel free to email HR anonymously at feedback@slalom.com. Again, thank you for leaving a review.
