Pros

People at Slalom are generally nice, and supportive. The culture promotes inclusiveness, and the work life balance is great.

Cons

Around 2022 Slalom started to change. The company over hired, senior leadership said they would never fire people, only to have to fire people because they weren't bringing in enough business. Every year the narrative changed, and it became a race to the bottom where people fought for low pay raises. My manager sabotaged me in my ratings to get a higher pay raise. Favoritism has always been a part of Slaloms culture, but it became much more self evident when senior leadership would send out emails congratulating people on promotions, and also send out emails on who they fired. The company claims to have values, such as "do the right thing always," but in practice this is more of a marketing term to bait and switch people.

A lot of opportunity as the company is well positioned with tier 1 technologies in their overall stack giving them a broader perspective to bring to the market

Constant change in leadership & evolving commission structure - has created a level of uncertainty in the direction the ship is being steered
