Pros

Pay, Benefits, La Croix, Starbucks coffee, Clean bathroom

Cons

Slalom's Los Angeles office is a place where pretty people get ahead with knowing the least amount. No knowledge here on how their clients operate. This is an implementation shop, pump and dump...shove Salesforce down the client's throat and then walk away if the client isn't willing to pay millions. Every consultant is pushed to sell, constantly. Many times we were left to just bill and squat at the client's office. A bunch of bodies to do something that should take half the team,at best. Oh, and be ready to feel like you're in a den of tech bros meets college sorority with events meant for extroverts and the "cool kids". This office is high school politics on steroids. Leadership is really clueless on what their clients really need. A complete shell game. If you were a perky fun popular kid in high school and college, you'll do fine here in this smoke and mirrors con job.

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
