I got a pay raise going from Accenture to Slalom actually

like

Nope, I was C&M in Accenture Digital in one of the highest COL city on the West Coast. Relatively young and healthy so I picked the cheapest high deductible health plan at Accenture, and even their HSA allowances were worse than Slalom.

I’m not saying Slalom is all sunshine and rainbows, but just pointing out Accenture vs. Slalom facts that I noticed after I made the move.

Me too 🤑

Smgrs at acn make more.
Mgrs are a toss up between the two.
Bonus is about 6-8%. Pretty much guaranteed.
401k blows.
Healthcare only has one option, acn's is a bit better of you visit chiropractors
Work varies, sometimes you will do work that is much cooler than accenture. Other times straight staff aug.
Hours are pretty mellow.
Co workers are much more skilled tech wise, much worse consulting skills wise
No a- holes over here

^^^actually, regarding health insurance, I pay less now at Slalom than I did at Accenture for a comparable plan.

C1, let me guess: you were a CD&O in mid-tier city who picked the costliest insurance option during enrollment

Damn C1, maybe we have wrong info. This is interesting

Also, 401k is 50% match up to 6% which is the same as ACN when I joined. ACN has since improved but that doesn’t exactly “blow,” or is “a joke."

like

SC1, you must have some sort of sample bias going on when it comes to raises. My raises the past few years were 8%, 18%, and then 15% - those were pretty normal raises. ACN has full 401k matching up to 6%, so basically double Slalom
I think Slalom is great from what I hear tho 😁

like

Yes. But we have a lot more women in the firm and also in leadership positions

like

A4 is correct. They get less vacation, health insurance cost more, 401K is a joke. Their raises and bonuses are on par with ACN

like

I have never seen a bonus under 10% in 5 years at Slalom. My raises have always been 6-10%. Idk anyone at Accenture (including myself) who can say that

like

SC2, you sure about that? Our North America CEO (Julie Sweet) is a women and so are 47 percent of her direct reports

like

A lot of our offices have women in leadership positions. I know some offices were 60% of all leaders are women.

Im not saying everywhere....but we are doing great

Anyone know what the range for manager is at slalom on the west coast?

Do you work from home often at Slalom? Or are you expected to be onsite every week or going into the office? Any work from home weeks? Does it vary by practice?

Travel and TTC combo haven’t worked. After 6 months, the only offer I got included 4 weeks paid and FLMA only after 1 year. So 1) go and risk laughable benefits or 2) stay but risk TTC. So shitty 😭
