Pros
I'm in my 2nd week and so far and I can only speak about the recruitment process and on-boarding truly. By working with experience at first place, I reaaally pay attention on the culture and every single step involved in the employee experience that makes it alive, and from my short experience with Slalom London, it's been AMAZING so far! Starting with the recruitment part, it went very smoothly and the in house recruiters are so nice and kind, very helpful and prompt to help you. Interviews were so nice that they felt more like a chat, and what stood up to me was that they cared not only about how technically good you are, but also how strong your soft skills are and how it's a match with their culture. On-boarding was also great! Slalom office has such a friendly vibe and they really designed their process to make us feel good with all the new info, that usually make newbies uncomfortable and overwhelmed. In a nutshell, they just not preach user/customer/employee experience, but they seem to really apply the principles they sell to clients internally, and this feel right and great, very consistent! Small details really count too, and I was delighted when I received a hand-written card alongside a book that translate their culture delivered to my house prior to start and also a warming email from my practice director, welcoming me and asking which size of screen I wanted for my work mac-book. I'm literally in love <3
Cons
I've just started and the only cons I can think of is the free chocolates and M&Ms available, if you don't have a very good self control mechanism, you end up following on temptation all the time :D
