    Pros

    Great people, opportunities to learn through projects, work life balance.

    People can get to be very echo-chambery- not bad when the topic is work-related, but pretty annoying when it comes to politics.

    Doesn't Recommend
    Neutral Outlook

    I worked at Slalom full-time for less than a year

    Pros

    - Mostly average benefits - Typically no travelling - Some consultants/managers are great

    Cons

    - Lots of grandstanding, from work quality, to culture, and everything in between: one example, the CEO proclaimed "people over profits" during COVID, but maybe they forgot they let go of people (including recent new grads!) in the months prior - Surprisingly unwelcoming environment considering how often there's sessions on discrimination, mindsets, etc - Infighting between regional offices - Focus on client happiness over employee happiness (typical consulting) - Lots of internal pushing to get rated highly by polls (best place to work, etc)
