      Small firm that has yet to establish its identity within the marketplace

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work/Life Balance: It's very rare to work more than 40-45 hrs per week. Most consultants are efficient enough to get their work done without having to work OT Company Culture: Great camaraderie. Everyone in the company seems to get along with each other. Company events are very social and quite fun.

      Cons

      Work not Challenging: For better or for worse, most of the work is staff augmentation. The firm is not large enough to staff a large scale project leveraging multiple teams Cliquish: There's definitely an "in-crowd" that force feeds company pride down your throat. Performance Reviews include a section that measures how "involved" you are with attending/planning company events.

      Lot's of talk, not a lot of support

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Variety of clients and opportunities, adequate salary, lots of social events

      Cons

      Not a lot of real management support. If you bring up concerns the people you work for says they will help resolve issues but if it could impact revenue in any way nothing happens. Quality of management and sales people varies WILDLY - some sales reps are not very helpful, smart to honest.

      Can be great, but not for everyone

      Pros

      - Local consulting model = no travel. - The company is still small enough that you get a sense of community, and there are a lot of fun team events and an annual retreat where you can get to know others in the office, including leadership. - Good work/life balance. - Most people are easy to work with and enthusiastic about what they do. - Good place to build your career if you specialize in an area that Slalom has a strong practice around.

      Cons

      - Lack of transparency in staffing; it's often difficult to decide whether to take a role that's not a good fit when you don't know what else is out there. This is especially true if you're unstaffed or coming available. - A lot of roles fall in the "staff augmentation" category. Can be frustrating for those used to more strategic engagements. - Compensation is slightly below market to average. Not bad but nothing great. - PTO is much lower compared to other Big 4 consulting firms. - Can feel a little too fraternity-ish, especially if you don't live in SF and/or have a family.
