I am interviewing in a week or so at Slalom Consulting (San Francisco Office) as an Associate Consultant in Business Advisory Services.
Anyone has any pointers? (Interview process, the job, compensation, etc..)

Interview process is a breeze. Be comfortable with yourself, tell great stories, love our core values and your interviewer will love you right back.
The job for an AC will typically be partnered with a senior member of the practice. You’ll look at old PowerPoints from older clients and swap out the names for the current client. Remember to change the logos. Don’t tell the client this. You’ll mostly be doing note taking when your team meets the client, and googling and cleaning up PowerPoints when you’re not.
Compensation is awful.

Is it common?
