Vantaggi

Intentions to have great culture, lots of gatherings after work to maintain continuity, some interesting work depending on the project

Svantaggi

Management makes too many decisions in a vacuum that have far-reaching impact. Folks on-the-ground bringing in the coin are at the mercy of the Managing Director overseeing the project. At-a-whim you can be ripped from a project with zero warning. Horrible continuity when there is project turnover which leaves the people left behind at a severe disadvantage. When projects go off-the-rails (happens way too often) the almighty dollar wins in nearly every case. This is not the way to build/maintain a culture and values. Oh, and you can kiss your bonus goodbye unless you are nearly 100% utilized that year-end payout will not be the nice surprise you expect.

This is John Tobin. I'd be happy to talk to you more about this if you would like - simply email me at johnt@slalom.com to set up a time to speak. I'm very familiar with all our culture initiatives from an overall company perspective (vs. market specific), so would be happy to talk to you about that too. I believe Slalom is focused on hiring the right people and we are looking to maintain a consistent fit for our core values and culture - That said, we are not perfect and I agree we must diligently support the focus on this no matter how big we get.

Vantaggi

•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.

Svantaggi

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
