Vantaggi

Mostly the friendships I will take with me - the majority of non senior leaders are great Hybrid working - still open policy on how many days you need to be in the office No travel expectations Office is great with free snacks and drinks

Svantaggi

No matter how much you fight the machine, people are treated as assets - how much can be extracted from them (aka are they fully utilised) and if not punish them - reduced bonus, no promotion. Ivory Tower leadership, living by survey results rather than personal interaction. London lead has recently commandeered a large corner office for himself to further insulate from the masses. Poor at comms and change management, echos of the Ivory Tower comment above, When I joined the values felt that they meant something and permeated through the company, unfortunately they've become cheap reminders of better times. 'Love your work and life' - as long as it doesn't impact the bottom line! Maybe there's nothing wrong with that, but stop pretending Slalom is different.

Vantaggi

Historically a 'people-first' company, until recently. Valued their people and worked to create a great, inclusive, creative culture. Lots of training and learning opportunities as well as career growth opportunities. Great support system across the markets, re: resources, advice, mentoring. In regards to client work — Slalom perfected the true client collaboration and partnership. They work with the client on finding solutions together. I had a great experience there for over 10 years, until the most recent re-orgs and layoffs (Q1 2026).

Svantaggi

Recent re-orgs and flattening of the company's capabilities and reporting structure has led to many communication issues across the company (local vs. national) and a new system that puts the onerous on the consultant to find their next project and avoid 'bench time' between projects, now competing with hundreds of other consultants across the US for the same role. The new system is less than a year old and was riddled with issues. These changes, and major communication issues have led to a large increase in attrition compounded by many rounds of layoffs.
