Pros

* For consultants that do not want to get on a plane, Slalom is a very good choice * I met some pretty smart people while I was there * All the projects I was on were solutions based projects, where Slalom owned the deliverables * Back-office products and technology was nice ie time sheets software, software on your laptop and Intranet

Cons

* Very limited MSDN subscription * No insight into what the promotion process consist of * Slalom is not very diverse. Very few African-Americans and Women at Slalom and very few in leadership positions * As others have stated, Slalom consists of a lot of Big-4 type consultants. In Slalom Dallas, many in leadership are from Hitachi Consulting * Long commute and absolutely no room to negotiate any type of toll reimbursements * Working from home is looked down upon and mostly not an option * Extremely corporate and even wearing jeans in the office if you are on the bench is considered inappropriate

Pros

They have nice office locations and brand name clients

Cons

What started as a great idea has gone very wrong. They wanted to differentiate themselves by being a good place to do great consulting work. Unfortunately, they are turning into another carbon copy of Accenture and Deloitte without the research to back it up. Sloppy business development and staffing practices and univolved management. They don't seem to be focused on the client or thier needs.

Not the same company

Pros

Hard to really think of any that are better than any other consultancy.

Cons

This company is a shell of itself and no longer has the same culture it did 4-5 years ago. It's clear they are positioning themselves to be purchased. Lots of regular layoffs, not much opportunity to move up, and no sense of direction. Stay away.
