I personally got really bored, really quickly. They do a ton of staff augmentation work (which is one of the ways they sustain a local model) and the teams I worked with delivered very mediocre work that they thought was high quality. Most of the individuals didn't have any real consulting experience before Slalom (recruiting told me exactly the opposite), which made client interactions very challenging. People do indeed sign off at 5 PM, pat themselves on the back, and leave the client site while fires are burning all around them, though. Wasn't a good fit for me, but I understand every office is different. I spent less than 6 months there.

It’s identical to the first round just with different people...and no

@OP Slalom does indeed give signing bonuses. I recieved one when I joined, but I've since returned to the D.

@D1 - why did you return to D?

@D1...same question

I need some advice. I got a new job back in may of this year. Very excited for a new opportunity to learn some new things and get a higher paycheck. I started and have gotten a few projects but they haven’t consistently been giving me hardly any work to do. I’m not resourced enough. I told my manager I have a lot of free time. I also work fully remote. I am feeling very unfulfilled and not sure what I should do next. I am very self motivated and want to make great work but not sure what to do.

Hey guys,
I’m working at Management Solutions in my Rome since I have the desire to work abroad I sent my CV around the Europe.
Deloitte called me from Barcelona to schedule an interview with the HR.
The position is in the accounting sector of Deloitte DBS. They told me that the base salary (I’m an entry level) is 18k per year. In Rome I’m actually earning 28k+1k bonus.
Anyone knows why there’s such a great gap in salary? Tomorrow I’ll have the interview so any comments could be helpful. Thx
