Pros

1. Used to have great culture 2. Used to be people first

Cons

1. Layoffs Last year layoffs were necessary and understandable but it doesnt stop there. People have been let go continuously after 3 months of bench rule which was introduced after layoffs, although it was promised that this is based on market conditions, I know many who were let go and these are the best talented people to work with. If you see anyone coming out of Slalom layoff, grab them! They are super talented! I hear layoff news every other day from literally every other market, also both local and build. I don't expect management to do anything about this as this is intentional. 2. There is no people culture anymore. As Slalom is pushing hard on AI and other changes to meet the new needs of market, Slalom has left behind it's people. 3. Used to be the best working place competing against the likes of facebook and Apple but not anymore after mid 2023. I dont see any changes in the near future.

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
