Pros

Slalom really allows flexibility in work life balance. The hourly model allows you to realize more upside as you work more hours, or decide to maybe work less, if that fits better into your life. Great, fun, culture and really smart, interesting people.

Cons

The roles tend to be more limited and "staff aug" than roles you'd get with big 4 firms. Hourly model also has downside potential, as you only make half your hourly if you're on the beach. Holidays and PTO are kind of skimpy.

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
