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!

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
