Interested in learning more about Slalom. What differentiates them in the marketplace? Why do clients that hate us love them? Is it the culture?

From the client perspective, at the end of the day our bill rates very competitive given the average years of experience (few fresh undergrads) and minimal travel expenses.

Thanks @Slalom1. How is the work different? Is there a type of work that you're known for? Or do you have similar breadth & depth to Deloitte/PwC?

Slalom has been primarily known for tech. We are trying to change that to expand into all facets of consulting same as the bigger shops. Most of us came from big4, Accenture, IBM, etc so we know what's up. The hours are dependent on what the SOW is written for but I haven't encountered the situation where I was pressured or expected to put in free work

At what point do you draw the line on WLB? Working insane hours on a long/term project with what feels like no end in sight. It’s not sustainable but clearly expected. Could you get fired for drawing lines in the sand and saying (example) “come 8:30 every night I’m logging off”. That’s a 65 hour work week as-is but I currently am up until midnight working consistently. For context I’ve been rated as a strong performer consistently and am not new to the job so it’s not a lack of understanding.
