Hi all, I wanted to see if any fish in this bowl have some opinions on Slalom. Decent place to work? How’s the culture? Is TC competitive with similar firms?

Yes, decent place to work especially if you're in tech. Good WLB (at least for consulting), generally interesting projects, and a supportive culture.

TC is generally regarded as weaker than other consulting firms. The value prop to the consultant is no travel, fewer hours, and no up-or-out. FWIW, I live in a MHCOL city and have 190k TC as a manager.

Feel free to DM with questions.

Pretty much this. Although I will say it’s feasible to get really great offers, especially with low YOE.

Hi, do you know of any opening as a production manager making at least 120K?

Any help or insights will be greatly appreciated.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
