Pros

People are generally great and it seemed like a decent place to work if you're a Consultant.

Cons

Still very localized in terms of sales team structure, which means you have local market leaders (former Consultants) running the sales teams. Very little direction from corporate, other than an awful company-wide sales comp plan. Plan was based on billed revenue and local leadership made the numbers high enough to where quarterly bonuses were virtually impossible, since you aren't paid any % unless you hit the astronomical goal. Zero ramp-up period when joining so you're expected to sell $500-750k+ in net-new billed revenue in each Quarter, with no existing book of business and very few existing MSA's. Average deal size across Slalom is $300k. Sales is used as a marketing, cold calling, and "who do you know" engine before they move on to a firm that appreciates the role.
