Vantaggi

Very selective and trying to do things right.

Svantaggi

1. You have to be always wired as it comes with consulting, however it is contrary to what they claim. 2. My leader wants work to be done off hours but doesn’t let me put those hours as chargeable. I have heard the same thing from my colleagues. This is one way for people to get promoted, as in, have people work double hours and charge half. Engagement are a hit. 3. I have seen people getting multiple promotions within a short span of time. e.g consultant to Director in 4 years. Good for the person but not so good for the junior folks as a person with a title and no real life experience is leading them. 4. Now I am being asked to come to office to warm up chairs. 5. I live closer to downtown office, which is a train ride away and down own a car. I have had clients in suburbs and had to pay out of pocket for uber and commuter, and we were told we cant reimburse. 6. Annual goal setting is a joke and you are on your own to put your priorities and goals—seriously? 7. Some leaders lack basic social skills, including speaking and writing. Everybody should be made to write a paper/give writing sample as the interview process to weed out folks. 8. My practice leaders don’t have a standard methodology that they can apply(process, templates etc) and everything is on the fly. **Anybody can put two and two together and infer why Slalom is able to bid low

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
