Pros

Good energy and they treat employees well. Generous work/life balance

Cons

Very disappointed in the lack of diversity in senior leadership. While there are very smart women in the company, senior leadership is all the same.

The best consulting company, but not perfect

Pros

I've worked for other consulting companies, and Slalom is leaps and bounds better. Leadership truly cares about the happiness of consultants. There are multiple different career paths a consultant can choose, work/life balance is amazing, consultants can choose to take on more responsibilities at their office, or just do their client work and go home.

Cons

Slalom 100% keeps the promise of work/life balance that they make to their consultants. However, consultants see that once their peers are promoted to jobs with additional responsibilities, the promise of work left balance is broken. The mandatory billable hour requirements of leadership roles do not come even close to making up for the additional responsibilities, so people in leadership work many more hours than consultants. This is created a problem in which many consultants do not want to be promoted.
