Pros

Some of the people are exceptional. The clients I worked on were all great. They have good documentation.

Cons

Dishonesty, "culture" is all talk, everything is just for show. Your "mentors" only do it to brag, you get punished for things you can't control (like whether sales has signed a contract or not), they lie about their dedication to inclusion. (They ignore trans people in all metrics, laid off the accessibility leads, punish people for taking ADA accommodations.) They say they care about and trust their employees then force a back-to-office policy. Their benefits and pay are far behind others in the industry (esp after a year-long freeze). Paid 2x what I am now for the same health coverage. Very thin pipeline of incoming work means I expect there will be more layoffs by Q2 2024. (Speaking of layoffs, they've been doing them for a bit but kept it secret until the big one. It was not their first layoff. They also keep an entire division that is unpaid if not on a project so they can inflate their numbers. Those "employees" don't yet any Slalom privileges, just get to be numbers.)

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
