Pros

The culture used to be a positive, and some areas do seem to have a good work life balance (great work life balance for those on the bench, until you get fired.)

Cons

The company is bleeding money trying to stay afloat- how many town halls and emails about the same topic can we have? They leaned in hard to GenAI with leaders that have no knowledge and are wildly unequipped to handle the space and are feeling the repercussions. If you're on the bench for 12 weeks, you are automatically fired- but the company is not selling enough work in any area. Very poor long term outlook for the company. On a personal note, getting tired of being harassed to fill out "Best Places to Work" surveys when I don't feel Slalom is a good place to be. Trying to wait it out to get severance, but everyone I know is looking for new roles.

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
