Pluspunten

Local consulting model - better work life balance to the employee and lower costs to clients Social events that include your spouse Great marketing - Rated as a "Great Place to Work", attracts good resumes

Minpunten

Leadership is hard to trust - feels manipulative, not genuine or inspiring False advertising - no follow through on recruiting messages Weak client relationships - always on the edge, having to prove the organization Staff augmentation - work is not interesting or rewarding Long commutes - work is local but commutes are unpredictable Many lay offs behind the scenes - usually due to politics but masked as an employee performance issue High turn over - good people tend to quit Very political, cut throat environment Internal rat race - everyone feels insecure and is quick to throw each other under the bus

This is John Tobin. I plan on sharing this review with the New York leadership team. We have never had a "lay off", but you are right that we do sometimes let people go that are not performing well - these are very few in a given year though typically. If you are up for a conversation to discuss more your experiences, simply email me at johnt@slalom.com to set up a time to talk. In addition, if you have feedback that you'd like to share anonymously, please complete this short survey at any time: http://slalom.ws/anonsurvey.

Pluspunten

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Minpunten

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
