Pros

Very intelligent people. Remnants of old culture still good.

Cons

New leadership is not people first, no matter what they claim. They will sacrifice anyone now. Local new leadership is cold. You are a commodity to them, they do not care about you anymore.

Pros

- Great culture - Guided by strong core values - Superb office

Cons

- Growth hasn't been followed by appropriate corporate services - HR, travel, performance, promotions etc all feel designed for a company a third of the size. - Company wants to become global but struggle to work between nearby markets like London and Manchester. - London is being led by an American (which is odd for a company who wants to be hyper local). EMEA and APAC is led by... another American.

Great that culture and core values stand out, even as we scale internationally. You’ve called it right on the growing pains for our business as we go global. Having seen it from my role as the first country leader for Slalom outside of North America I can say Slalom has learned and grown so much in this area over the past 5 years…and that we have so much more to do! It’s an incredible task (and privilege) to create a global company – I’ve got so much respect for those companies who have travelled the journey and operate their businesses efficiently across countries/continents. Thanks for your advice on the global/local point – I do wonder about that topic myself! I love our local model, I think it differentiates Slalom from others and will work in countries outside the US. I’m also in awe of what we’re doing to connect our capabilities globally where it makes sense to best serve our clients and partners. We’re hoping to set a new standard for a company in our sector that is globally connected and yet hyper local for how we deliver and how we look after our people. Regarding the feedback about nationalities, I think one key factor in our success is international diversity at all levels. It’s amazing to be part of a 35 nationality team in Slalom UK and Ireland – and it’s also wonderful to have leaders in our business who have 18+ years of experience in Slalom that they can share with our people and our clients. Appreciate your feedback and the steer. Ping me on dave.williams@slalom.com if you want to chat through some more – you’re seeing things that I recognise and I’m energised to work on as Slalom grows. -Dave Williams, President and Country Leader, UK&I

Pros

Great deal of autonomy, excellent pay and benefits.

Cons

Bullying persists in the UK office that senior leadership is aware of and appears to look away. Silos in the business prevent doing best work for customers.

Hi, this is Dave Williams. I’m glad you enjoyed the autonomy and benefits which are key ingredients to Slalom’s culture. I’ve highlighted your comment about bullying with our global HR organisation and I’m keen to hear from you directly because it’s a behaviour I will never tolerate. Please do reach out to me at dave.williams@slalom.com. You’ll recall as an employee there is an anonymous way to submit feedback on any topic at Slalom, and this is also an option for you as alumni. http://slalom.ws/anonsurvey. I’m motivated to work in a feedback driven company, so thank you for the feedback, and please do get in touch with more specific information so it can be acted upon appropriately.
