Vantaggi
Focuses greatly on individualized, professional development of its employees. Supports requests for internal or external training, taking on leadership opportunities, and works with consultants to make sure they take on projects that fit into their goals and passions. Wonderful office space, in an amazing London location. Numerous "extra-curricular" opportunities including a football team, a CSR group, and a debate include. Regular, internal events to allow consultants and support staff alike to socialize and get to know one another. In consulting, this provides a lot of value as it's sometimes easy to feel as though you're not connected to your own company when you're at a client site all week.
Svantaggi
Slalom is a fast-growing company, and with that comes growing pains. Each individual office seems to be growing, and the number of offices in each region may grow too. There are lots of ideas on how best to support this growth, but sometimes not enough time to go through with all those ideas. On the other hand, this provides great opportunity for staff to take on different aspects to support it as well.
