Business outlook
Pros
People are genuinely kind and helpful, at all levels. There is genuine pride in the company's values (also our Achilles heel)
Cons
Leaders (especially GMs and MDs) are not up to the performance standards of any of the top 5-6 recognized consulting firms, no matter what you hear, and regardless of how many times the leaders say it. Slalom's biggest challenge is we are stuck in a legacy mindset of staff aug. We got rich off that strategy until it "expired" in 2020 (likely before). While the intention might be there, we have failed to stay relevant and offer substantive value to clients. We lack the talent and won't - or cannot afford the $$ - to offload the layer of leaders who need to move on.
