Pros

Without out question Slalom attracts some truly awesome people. Transparency - Slalom genuinely works to be transparent with its team members, even when the message isn't positive. Career management and people management - for the most part, Slalom takes these activities more seriously than any professional services organization I have worked for.

Cons

Although not alone, Slalom has struggled a bit to adapt to a changing consulting landscape - this adaptability muscle needs further attention and strengthening. Professional and compensation growth is generally good for the first 2 to 3 years, but beyond this it can be a bit hit or miss. Not always clear that structure and org changes are as much performance/outcome driven vs. rewarding/retaining team members that have the right connections/relationships. Not unique to Slalom, but something they might strive to address.

Pros

people are very kind and its a great network to then have for life

Cons

I had 5 managers in 4 years, 3 of which promised me a promotion which I never got I was strung along in a seperate global team for a year and a half and then when I finally was moved to that group they fired 80% of us it's now an up or out company and people are leaving faster than business is coming in, that's been happening for 2 yrs my mental health was so bad i had two burnouts in a single year my last manager emotionally abused me and made me feel like i was a terrible person. I left believing that was why I was fired until i chatted with another former employee of this manager work life balance WAS a thing and in the last two years it's now that consultants are also responsible for selling, travel is a non-negotiable but expectations for travel are not transparent and can impact your yearly review, straight up not enough work and then senior management will make you feel bad for it
