      They deserve 3.5 stars but I'll round up to be nice

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Leadership is usually true to their word (key word, usually) - No layoffs at this place but if you're not good, they won't hesitate to let you go - Culture is second to none - They throw great parties

      Cons

      - As you progress, pay and bonus does not keep up with other firms. They need to definitely work on this and everything is lip service until something is done. - They hired a new Chief HR Officer and all of a sudden, the health benefits went down the toilet. Especially if you have a family. - New career framework/titles are no good. Some people are average at best but rubbed elbows with the higher ups and received an inflated title. This really upset the high performers who didn't get the title they were looking for. - Some clients truly suck. I've worked at a number of consulting firms and for some reason the majority of clients we signed were truly horrible people to work with. - Too many people hired without a consulting background. This means the trained consultants would need to pick up the slack. I personally worked with someone that had many years of industry experience so they had an inflated title but when it came down to consulting skills, they were horrible and I felt like I was training an 8 year old.

      Local Office Structure Good and Bad

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Lots of nice coworkers, willing to put in work, always smiling. Family like vibes from people you actually work with

      Cons

      Leadership is blind to consultant value. Underpaid (came from Big 4). Took away mileage reimbursement with no detailed reasoning, likely just to boost profits for the office quarterly reports

      First, thank you for your efforts in this growing office. As some additional context, we clarified the toll/mileage reimbursement as it was all over the board in practice. While the expectation is that our people could go anywhere in the local area for our local practice, we realize not all commutes are created equal and have a policy in place for excessive commutes. We also encourage anyone for whom the commute is a significant issue to raise his or her hand so we can figure out how we can alleviate the burden. As an employee of Slalom, it’s important for me to hear your perspective and/or ideas, and I would love to opportunity to talk live. Please feel free to call my cell at 425.985.4959 or email brianj@slalom.com . Brian Jacobsen, General Manager
