Pros

Some of my coworkers were really nice.

Cons

Incredibly misleading about diversity and inclusion. There's a lot of effort talking about how great they are at diversity and inclusion, and unfortunately not enough action. It breaks my heart- many will come to Slalom thinking "it will be different this time" and then suffer career damage. This is the worst and most political place I've ever worked. I've mentored many other women in this organization who have had similar experiences. I have a disability and asked HR multiple times to discuss a reasonable accomodation to no avail. I'm really concerned that Slalom does not take this seriously- we're in a pandemic and it's a very trying time for everyone not to mention those with a disability. Impossible to succeed in my capability if you're not a white guy and also in the boys club. Not every man makes it into the boys club. Some of my favorite people left rather unexpectedly- I suspect Slalom was trying to mask layoffs as "performance" issues. There was a high rate of voluntary minority attrition in my department. The senior leaders in my specialty area are really horrible at sales and have limited experience in this specialty, so they tend to frequently over promise and poorly estimate. This means long, long hours for workers or sometimes trying to build something that isn't possible.

Pros

-Work life balance -Supportive co-workers and leadership -Remote flexibility -Great benefits -Opportunities to learn and grow

Cons

-Started to take a turn in 2024 with layoffs - becoming like a lot of other consulting companies -Got rid of a lot of perks/get togethers, etc. which is understandable given how the market went, but they really started tightening budgets which meant no bonuses/salary raises for a while
