Pros

They are generous in many ways and stingy in others. Their PTO policy is an example of stingy while on the generous side they will pay for you and your partner to go to an annual weekend company retreat. Overall though, more generous than stingy.

Cons

They are immature in the realm of Agile and agile adoption. The other areas of the business I can't really comment as that is not so much my expertise and from where I stood it looked like they are doing a good job. But at agile - meh. They have a long ways to go to catch up to their competitors in the field.

This is John Tobin. This is pretty inconsistent with what I have seen especially in the Agile space, so I'd be happy to talk to you more about what you experienced if you would like - simply email me at johnt@slalom.com to set up a time to speak - I would really appreciate the more detailed feedback. Alternatively, if you’d like to share more feedback anonymously, please consider doing so via this survey: http://slalom.ws/anonsurvey.

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
