Pros

Kind people, balanced work life, ability to be honest and true to oneself (generally), good benefits, nice offices, some interesting projects.

Cons

I find the business currently lacks rigorous and strategic leaders, its culture has taken a big hit in the last couple of years, and growth opportunities are limited. Real-term pay cuts for 2+ years. Some recent operational changes look hopeful but, I'm not entirely convinced on the journey Slalom is taking. Many of strong people have left.

Pros

The company is extremely welcoming and has a great work/life balance. As long as you get your work done there isn't any micromanaging and there is no shame in taking time off. Even when I was on a particularly difficult project everybody on the project team stayed positive and kept a constructive mindset. This was a great breath of fresh air after working for several other consulting firms where people were constantly pointing fingers and looking to assign blame. I would gladly work there again should an opening become available.

Cons

Slalom is undergoing a major restructuring right now, which has the entire company in a state of uncertainty. Layoff plans have been deceptive and have been poorly communicated. Initially they said only a small handful of people would be let go, but then they dropped entire divisions of the company. While I understand things are challenging right now with the current state or the economy, the communication strategy felt very dishonest.

Pros

When I joined Slalom 3 years ago, it used to be a great company to work for with a deep focus on people and culture. The hiring bar was high. The work life balance was great.

Cons

Now, most of good leaders have left the company. Currently, it is run by some ex-Accenture leaders who are old school. People are very stressed at work and going through burnout.
