I have an offer with Slalom. I negotiated and bumped my title to Senior Consultant for their emerge supply chain practice. I would like to know about the company’s culture , typical work hours. If it helps, I’m a 30 year old female who is planning to start a family early next year, hence looking for a good work life balance without having to compromise my career progress. Base 130k, bonus 7%

Congrats on the offer! In my experience, Slalom's culture is more collegial than the B4 world and expectations around WLB are more conducive to family life.

I’m a Senior Principal in a small, high-growth cross-market practice here - I work a max of 48h/w, more commonly 44. WLB is real here, and it’s worth something to me.

Just got my PWD issued through current employer though their immediate reaction is subtly letting me know they’re not in a hurry to start recruitment. Got an offer today for $160k base. Similar role, both are good teams, etc. Do I politely decline and see my GC process through or accept and get more money? Feel like current employer will drag their feet as long as they can for retention purposes.
