Pros
• Excellent work-life balance supported by flexible and hybrid working options. • Competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package. • People at Slalom are deeply invested in the company’s success and the development of its people. • Client travel commitments align well with initial expectations - minimal. • Opportunities to work on impactful, cross-practice projects working with top-tier clients. • Centrally located, well-equipped offices offering complimentary snacks and beverages.
Cons
• Recent industry and economic challenges have gradually destroyed the ‘once-great’ company culture. • The core company values that once shaped hiring and performance processes are now irrelevant and rarely part of any conversation. • High attrition and on-going quiet firings, coupled with excessive bureaucracy and internal politics, has created a self-serving environment. • Global leadership and board-level updates have become increasingly vague over the past two years, often resembling 'word salad', providing limited confidence in strategic direction of travel. • Currently going through a re-org with late adoption of 'near-shoring' initiatives to enhance client billing, whilst providing no strategic clarity or detail to staff. • Limited promotions, lack of recognition for top performers, and stagnant wage growth (without inflation adjustments), as mentioned in other Glassdoor reviews. • Quarterly meetings, once a chance to connect and reset, have become mundane and negative. Little effort to celebrate any form of success.
