Pros

• Excellent work-life balance supported by flexible and hybrid working options. • Competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package. • People at Slalom are deeply invested in the company’s success and the development of its people. • Client travel commitments align well with initial expectations - minimal. • Opportunities to work on impactful, cross-practice projects working with top-tier clients. • Centrally located, well-equipped offices offering complimentary snacks and beverages.

Cons

• Recent industry and economic challenges have gradually destroyed the ‘once-great’ company culture. • The core company values that once shaped hiring and performance processes are now irrelevant and rarely part of any conversation. • High attrition and on-going quiet firings, coupled with excessive bureaucracy and internal politics, has created a self-serving environment. • Global leadership and board-level updates have become increasingly vague over the past two years, often resembling 'word salad', providing limited confidence in strategic direction of travel. • Currently going through a re-org with late adoption of 'near-shoring' initiatives to enhance client billing, whilst providing no strategic clarity or detail to staff. • Limited promotions, lack of recognition for top performers, and stagnant wage growth (without inflation adjustments), as mentioned in other Glassdoor reviews. • Quarterly meetings, once a chance to connect and reset, have become mundane and negative. Little effort to celebrate any form of success.

Pros

Some really fantastic people and the core values and ethos of the business were really great

Cons

Constantly changing goal posts, fixation on how many people are in the office - people hate the commuting into town, lack of real progression, sad to see so many great people leaving who represented the great culture
