Pros

Meaningful projects with good, quality clients that are professionally engaging and personally satisfying. If you want variety and challenge you will get it. Excellent personal and professional growth opportunities. Trials by fire you can't help but grow from to become an experienced hand. Great people and positive, supportive atmosphere at Slalom.

Cons

Consultant team solutioning type engagements (as opposed to single consultant staff aug roles) are being sold more often now, but too often the sales stage did not cover the necessary assessment and team staffing needed to truly deliver a great final product solution for the client. The consultants thrown on these types of engagements are then left in the lurch to figure out how to salvage a project that wasn't sold and staffed properly. Project management without the knowledge or use of software methodologies like Scrum & Agile which are needed for Slalom teams to succeed on solutioning projects.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about working at Slalom. It's wonderful that you are challenged and satisfied. Also, thanks for your insights regarding how projects are sold and staffed and around our structure as a "flat" organization. I'll ensure that leadership hears both of those things. If you have any additional thoughts that you'd like to share with leadership, please email HR anonymously at feedback@slalom.com.

Pros

1. Working with highly qualified consultants, average years of experience 10+. 2. Flexible career path - you define it! This is refreshing coming from a 'Big 4' consulting firm. 3. True to their core values, one of which is 'Do what's right for the client, always'. Consultants are invested in serving the communities that they live in. 4. Fantastic office culture

Cons

No cons thus far. Very satisfied.

Thank you for taking the time to provide some feedback. It's great that Slalom's culture and work align w/ your values and interests. I will be sure that leadership hears your advice around steering clear of the Big 4 structure. If you have any feedback that you'd like to share with leadership, you can email HR anonymously at feedback@slalom.com. Thanks!
