Well if you've been on here any length of time, you'll hear how great their local staffing model is. And continually will rub that juiciness in your face.

Every market is different. I’ve had a really great experience. The transition from Big 4 can be really difficult for some because it isn’t as rigidly structured. If you are the type of person who likes operating with a bit more freedom, yet is expected to succeed all the same, then Slalom is a good place for you. I’ve seen some Big 4 folks crash and burn because no one is there to give them strict guardrails, instructions, parameters, etc.

I’m so sick of hearing that Slalom is all staff aug. it’s not. Some markets do have a small amount of staff aug work, but we are moving away from selling that type of work in general. Sounds like you’re interviewing for a leadership position, which means sales responsibilities, which means you will have a direct influence on the type of projects (staff aug or not) you’ll bring in.

Good luck on your interviews!

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Hi Folks, I'm currently in search of a mentor. I'm a 28y/o MSc grad and starting a Junior Funding Consultant role (writing grant applications for startups) as I'm tired of holding out for an entry level role in ESG/Sustainability - I keep getting rejections despite completing a very wide ranging internship at a renewable energy company. Last year I received an offer at Deloitte Belgium but due to Brexit & VISA delays, we couldn't continue. Now I'm unsure of my career progression & need guidance.

Sales and Trading vs PE? What is comp, WLB and career trajectory like. Doing my MBA now and likely going into consulting, but not sure. Might plan to exit to PE but if S&T offers decent hours and similar pay, may just skip the whole consulting to PE business.
