      Pros

      Good people to work with who are excited and responsible, but leadership seems to lack a clear vision of how to proceed

      Cons

      Figuring out how to be a bigger company, task driven/rewarded results, inexperienced leadership team which leads to confusion and frustration

      Pros

      Used to be incredible culture -- company would invest into its employees learning and growing. Local -- you will see your family in the evening. Growing and expanding world-wide. John Tobin advocates for a "generational" firm -- and it used to be that it did allow for someone to be on the bench for a long time (think of several months), but they started doing layoffs recently -- compromised a lot of the promised culture...

      Cons

      Recent push to being billable as king -- ruins the culture and makes it very Big 4 like. Almost non-existent sick days/PTO. Many projects are staff augmentation -- which hurts the company's top talent which gets bored and leaves. Some very poor top leadership managers -- and unfortunately no mechanism in place to have checks and balances to get them out.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It sound like some things about the Slalom model are really working for you and have worked for you well in the past. It's too bad that your experience has shifted recently. Your advice regarding the benefits and the types of projects being delivered will be passed on to leadership as will your feedback around manager selection and John Tobin's "360" feedback system. If you have additional feedback that you'd like to share, please feel free to email HR anonymously at feedback@slalom.com at any time. Thanks again for posting.
