Get off the road, make less money, with sub top consultants benefits, but you may fall in Love with the culture

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Culture is amazing, respectful with the best work life balance of any place I have known, with regards to having your weekends. Draft beer, wine and snacks galore with lots of outside office activities. It is a local market consultancy - so local clients and far less to zero out of town travel.

Cons

You are paid less here period. The benefits are sub standard, if you are used to top consultants packages (e.g. Accenture, Deloitte, PWC...) It is a local market consultancy - which in reality is more time on the road driving (more dangerous than flying), no hotel points, no airline points, and honestly less time with the family if you live outside a big city and have long commutes. (vs flying out Monday and back Thursday which gives you Friday from home, caveat is that top consultants do work some weekends) Mobility is limited as you have a GM and he/she is in the top spot, regional opportunities are few, if you are more junior this may not be a problem during your stint, but for senior level team members- prepare to stay in role for the long haul.

This is John Tobin. We hear comments about our overall benefits often and we continue to make improvements. We have not heard as much about poor Healthcare coverage, so I really encourage you to talk to your HRBP about this - or just set up a time with me to talk through this - email me at johnt@slalom.com. Our firm does continue to grow and with growth, more opportunities continue to be created for our most senior folks - so hang in there. I'm happy you love our culture.
