Pros

People: smart, experienced, driven, cooperative, fun. Management is very innovative and thinks about people and long term. The result is the strongest, most positive culture I have ever worked in. The recruiting process was eye-opening: it was much more of a series of open conversations with managers, peers focused on how we could make it work for both Slalom and me instead of a one way "tell us how you can work for us' approach. This two-way street has continued since I started working there as well: there are discussions around which clients and specific engagements make sense for Slalom, client and myself. Again: very refreshing compared to working for some of the big 4 where you would be told on a Friday which client you need to report to on Monday without asking for your opinion.

Cons

Both pro and con: there are many social events, which by itself is great, but even though attending them is not mandatory nor expected by management, your colleagues do attend them and form very strong bonds that way. You'd be missing out on that by not attending, but this is a significant time commitment.

Pros

Entrepreneurial and expansion minded. If you can keep your clients happy, you do great. This translates to a higher bill rate, which translates to higher income potential.

Cons

Don't expect someone to really develop you - you are on your own. Want a laid back experience or a stressful one? It's on you. Each office operates independently, so don't expect consistency in offerings, cultures, or career trajectories.
