Pros

My fellow consultants are all smart and enjoyable people.

Cons

Health and benefits package is meager compared to industry standards. Expected hours are long. Worst of all leadership has a track record of dishonesty.

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. We continue to tweak all our benefits - pretty much each year we address something - yet, I know we still have work to do. I don't understand the track record of dishonesty, so I really hope you connect with me to explain what you have seen.

Pros

people are very kind and its a great network to then have for life

Cons

I had 5 managers in 4 years, 3 of which promised me a promotion which I never got I was strung along in a seperate global team for a year and a half and then when I finally was moved to that group they fired 80% of us it's now an up or out company and people are leaving faster than business is coming in, that's been happening for 2 yrs my mental health was so bad i had two burnouts in a single year my last manager emotionally abused me and made me feel like i was a terrible person. I left believing that was why I was fired until i chatted with another former employee of this manager work life balance WAS a thing and in the last two years it's now that consultants are also responsible for selling, travel is a non-negotiable but expectations for travel are not transparent and can impact your yearly review, straight up not enough work and then senior management will make you feel bad for it
