Pros

This is truly a remarkable company with such a supportive environment. I can tell my colleagues not only support me in my current work, but also support me in my career and my personal life ventures.

Cons

Compensation and benefits could be a bit more competitive within the market.

Pros

I can't say enough about my experience as a Slalom employee! I came to Slalom jaded and exhausted. It was less about my more than decade of work as a consultant, but more about feeling like a replaceable, overworked widget. I've always loved what I do. I just didn't love where and how I was doing it. I've been a consultant for just over 10 years at a few larger firms. I've had bigger titles, more responsibility and still didn't feel able to contribute the way I am able to at Slalom. There are no egos, no pretense, just great people who want to work hard for our clients. It's an ideal environment if you're looking to make real connections with your colleagues and clients. Coming to Slalom has been restorative for me! I feel like a 21-year-old consultant again! So grateful that I get to be part of this company!

Cons

I keep hearing negatives about the benefits, but they're not far off from other competitors I've worked at. If anything, the maternity leave benefit could be better scaled with other firms.

Good, if you have no family

Pros

Some interesting projects, the culture is very non-big4, and it's very social -- though too much focus on social.

Cons

If you don't want a family, no problem. If you're female, and want a family, no problem. But if you're male, and want a family, LOOK ELSEWHERE. They only support women after the birth of a child. Good place if you like wasting money on flashy, loud quarterlies and events. Thanks, but I'd rather have a better bonus, 401K, and other benefits.
