How is the culture & WLB at Slalom for Data Engineers?

WLB is pretty good. Office culture is fun, lots of events and HHs, but obviously not a thing these days.

Slalom is big on events... dinners, quarterlies, annual retreats. It’s a nice gesture, but spending a few thousand bucks per employee on this stuff doesn’t make up for the lousy salary growth.

I’d negotiate hard to make up for that.

Depends on the office, but I’d personally pick up some certs in AWS or Salesforce to position yourself for a tech practice role. You’ll be much more marketable and be able to command higher comp vs getting stuck doing PMO somewhere

As a data engineer at Slalom, culture is very chill and WLB is very chill
