Pros

They are generous in many ways and stingy in others. Their PTO policy is an example of stingy while on the generous side they will pay for you and your partner to go to an annual weekend company retreat. Overall though, more generous than stingy.

Cons

They are immature in the realm of Agile and agile adoption. The other areas of the business I can't really comment as that is not so much my expertise and from where I stood it looked like they are doing a good job. But at agile - meh. They have a long ways to go to catch up to their competitors in the field.

This is John Tobin. This is pretty inconsistent with what I have seen especially in the Agile space, so I'd be happy to talk to you more about what you experienced if you would like - simply email me at johnt@slalom.com to set up a time to speak - I would really appreciate the more detailed feedback. Alternatively, if you’d like to share more feedback anonymously, please consider doing so via this survey: http://slalom.ws/anonsurvey.

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
