Pros
- Slalom builds things. So you can confidently discuss say digitalising a process or customer experience and with a client that you can confidently say you can build or have access to people who can.
- Work for some great clients who want to do cool things.
- Flat structure open culture which means you can always share your views with everyone regardless of rank - if you want to improve the office space, take an proposition to market, spitball solutions for clients, improve the hiring experience, improve the benefits....just SPEAK UP! Start a conversation with the person next to you, the MD’s and even the GM (who is probably sitting right next to you).
- People laugh a lot. It’s very refreshing to work in an environment where people are happy and like to laugh or make others laugh
- Playlists in the office - want to listen to music, share your favourite song with people to get them in the mood. Switch on your Bluetooth and hook up to the office speaker.
- Foodies - there is a good number of folks that love to share food experiences - being right next to Borough Market helps a lot and the Flat Iron / Bankside / Bermondsey St. areas
- Office location is on London Bridge - perfect for FS clients, commuting into London Bridge, Borough Market.
- Growing at a fast pace - bring your energy and enthusiasm
- Access to advice and helpful materials from the network for 5000 consultants !!! I email, message or call someone in the network and they respond!!! They share insight, materials (that they can) quickly. This is sooooo helpful and refreshing - this can be a hassle or not even worth trying at the other large consulting organisations.
Cons
that said...
- getting kind of tight in the office - but we are expanding space soon!:)
- still nailing down performance process - but that’s a good thing - we want to get it right
