Pros

There are very talented people here. Some of these talents are wasted because of limited sales focus. This is a good place to get experience.

Cons

Slalom Consulting is a very provincial company. Every office is really its own mini-company. Sales folks are very limited in their scope of what they try to sell. There are very talented technical resources, but middle mgmt. and sales are weak.

Pros

They have nice office locations and brand name clients

Cons

What started as a great idea has gone very wrong. They wanted to differentiate themselves by being a good place to do great consulting work. Unfortunately, they are turning into another carbon copy of Accenture and Deloitte without the research to back it up. Sloppy business development and staffing practices and univolved management. They don't seem to be focused on the client or thier needs.

Pros

Loads of bench time Very friendly culture Very easy to get in (almost no interview process)

Cons

Loads of bench time It is a glorified body shop You do not get paid full salary if you are on the bench Upper management urges you to bill what you work and then complain about too much time billed No consistency in direction
