Pros

Nice co-workers Still manages to land some decent projects

Cons

Local management is aloof and disconnected from the field consultants. Very cliquish and political. As Slalom grew, they could not adapt and reverted to their Accenture ways. It is a shame, it used to be a great place to work.

This is John Tobin. Thanks for your review. I plan on sharing it with our Denver office leadership team. If there are more specifics you care to share, I would like to hear about those. Certainly, not the intent of this company to change our culture or core values even as we grow, so would love to understand how things impacted you. Simply email me at johnt@slalom.com or if you want to remain anonymous send feedback to feedback@slalom.com. Thanks for considering these other ways to share so we can continuously improve.

Pros

•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.

Cons

•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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
