Pros

Slalom is a large systems integrator that has been able to grow quickly. They offer career growth if you are willing to abandon every other aspect of your life.

Cons

Customers do not come first. On my projects it was clear that it was all about the profit. Things sounded great in the interview process but was a very disapointing experience after I decided to join and tried to intergrate into the team. Very closed culture... did not feel included.

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
