over hyped - Consultant Slalom Employee Review

This is John Tobin - Thank you for your review on Glassdoor. I take our reviews very seriously and would like to provide you some additional information that might be helpful in clarifying some of our benefits and staffing processes. I don't usually elaborate this much on my responses, but felt it was a good opportunity to clarify some of the specifics based on your review. Additionally, I would highly encourage you to reach out me or to our HR group so that I can help better understand your concerns and rectify or clarify any misunderstandings about our benefits or staffing processes. You can reach me at (206) 374-4221 or HR at HR@slalom.com Attrition: Slalom Consulting’s rolling 12 month attrition is 16.6% for all offices - this includes both wanted and unwanted attrition. Seattle is 12.9% and has one of the lower %’s of attrition in comparison our other larger offices. One of the reasons you may be seeing so many new faces at our events is the large volume of hiring we have done over the last several years. Last year Slalom hired 649 employees, 82 of which were hired in Seattle. 401k: We do have a match and you are able to contribute your own money from the date of hire. You are eligible for a match after 1 year of employment and that match is 100% vested. Most companies either have a waiting period for the match, or a vesting period for the match. We have opted to allow our employees to have full access to their match after 1 year of employment vs. having a vesting period for the match in which you would have access to some of the match over a period of years. We continue to look at adjusting our 401K policy and other benefits. I hope to hear from you - John T.
