Pros

The people and culture are hands down the best I've ever experienced in the consulting industry. In any industry, for that matter.

Cons

If you're looking for someone to hold your hand in terms of career development, look elsewhere. Slalom is great at providing a framework for career growth, plenty of learning opportunities, and outlining what it thinks are the minimum success factors and proficiency levels to advance in your career, but if you need a company that will set the course for you and dictate a timeline in which you need to achieve growth, you won't find it at Slalom. At Slalom, the sky's the limit, but it's up to every consultant to seek out and pursue growth opportunities.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
