Thanks for leaving a review. It sounds like your colleagues, the benefits, our internal technical support and the Slalom events are all working well for you. I absolutely recommend that you provide your manager with feedback and ask for more frequently check-ins. If you feel uncomfortable doing so, you can always reach out to HR to have them facilitate a conversation. It's important that you feel well-supported by your manager, so if you continue to feel disconnected, I encourage you to reach out to HR at feedback@slalom.com. Thank you for posting this feedback.

Love the 2020 Vision

Pros

Heavy focus on vision, purpose and values - company actually measures how well they are doing living their values with employees and clients. Great continued organic growth (no acquisitions) with now almost 4,000 employees and 21 offices. Love the 2020 plan and that leaders took the time to listen and go to each market to share. Work has moved from primary staff augmentation 10 years ago to becoming highly strategic in most cases today. Exciting to see the vision to long-term have an office in every major city in the world.

Cons

Slalom leaders have expressed a goal to become the world's most connected company. Today, most people at Slalom will go above and beyond to help a co-worker. Yet this is often done without the benefit of a great collaboration platform. Diversity of senior leaders is getting better but could be accelerated even more. Recent changes in benefits are good but would love to see more opportunity with 401(k) and additional equity ownership possibilities created.

Thank you for providing such a thoughtful review. It's great to hear that you find the 2020 Vision which has been, as you said, rolled out to all of our markets by our executive leadership team, so inspirational and exciting. You advice to leaders to have them share how all of us can get involved in bringing the 2020 Strategy to life and focusing on 'smart growth' will be shared with leadership as will your feedback around needing a great collaboration platform. 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. Thank you for sharing your insights.

high integrity, smart people

Pros

Some Slalom leaders refer to the company as a 'start up' and it often feels like that: with both the positive qualities of a start-up (ability to advance quickly, have your voice be heard, be connected to leadership) and the negative qualities (tech debt, org debt, misaligned initiatives). Overall, I believe leadership is committed to both the success of employees and of the organization. The org is mission and vision-driven. We deliver some very high-impact work to our clients. Colleagues are generally hardworking, high integrity and smart.

Cons

There are more women and people of color in leadership roles than there were when I started, but there is still a great deal of room for improvement. Leadership is currently working to improve benefits and profit-sharing. They're not stellar, but they're headed in the right direction.
