Pros

Simply put - Culture. The leadership team is really focusing on bringing in bright individuals with lots of energy and enthusiasm about building something great together in the Toronto market. Slalom has a very down-to-earth, friendly approach to the world of Management and Technology Consulting. This is a place to have a lot of fun, be challenged intellectually, and have no unwanted travel.

Cons

The Toronto practice is currently in its growth phase so there is some risk around keeping the culture that Slalom is known for. However, I'm confident that the leadership team will make the sensible hiring choices.

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
