Pros

Beautiful office environment, great location, good salary. good perks. lovely colleagues who perish soon.

Cons

A very leveled hierarchical management which leads to a lot of politics and usually abuses. No support for your onboarding despite they claim it. No one can hear you over those who are generating money for the company. A lot of pretentious behavior. Management and lead roles are given to people with limited skills and knowledge. A very high rate of staff turnover. in less than a year no one from my team of 6 who were all under 2 years, 3 of them less than a year in the company were there. You as a consultant should be always at the client. Catastrophic low amount of work they get leads to long bench time for engineers (Sometimes over 3 months). The London office is still not profitable after over 10 years and it is being fed by the US office.

I’m sorry it didn’t work out for you at Slalom. We care deeply for all our employees and feel confident that this is an isolated incident and inconsistent with the feedback we typically receive in London. To clarify one of your factually incorrect statements, Slalom has only been in London since 2014 and after the initial investment to get setup has run as a profitable business for some time. However, we are primarily motivated by the purpose that each person should be able to love their life and work, and we hope you find that happiness in your next role.

Pros

Great coworkers Great leadership Focus on culture Ability to direct your own career path

Cons

You need to self promote and direct your own career. If you wait for it to be handed to you on a plate, you won't be as successful.
