Slalom is recruiting me at a time where I’m vulnerable… I’ve been crushing it lately at my current job and keep getting the Heisman when I broach the topic of promotion to Senior Manager. I’ve heard good things in the past about Slalom, but the recent feedback on Reddit / Glassdoor is quite negative. Is there any additional context you 🐟 can provide?

“Heisman” is confusing. At first glance seems like you got a trophy. Better to describe as “stiff arm”. Yes, Heisman pose is a specific stiff arm, but not the clearest description of what you are experiencing.

Please fix. How is that for your Partner contribution of the day 😉

Depends on what you do. Parts of our business are excellent right now, and parts aren’t. I think we’re over the hump on a (very messy, very “this is why you don’t do it yourself”) enterprise re-org and back to growth mode. I’m a director in our Salesforce practice and my team is doing great - let me know if you have specific questions.

Slalom is in a “rebuilding” stage - dust still settling from a rocky org restructure away from the “franchise model” that gave each market a more boutique feel. May be that it’s better than where you are, but there’s definitely still some forming/storming happening around new culture and ways of working.

Promotions won't be any easier at Slalom.

Read the reviews. Randomly select 10 or so from the last ~2 years. Feed them into any AI LLM and assess what's important to you (promotion or growth or $$ or travel or benefits - whatever). The answer should be obvious but with a random sample and AI looking for patterns it'll be unbiased.

Is there a way to say “my current org doesn’t know I’m looking, so please treat my interest with discretion” that doesn’t raise red flags? Thanks!

I didn’t plan on moving to another firm; the new firm sought me out and made me an offer - the process happened so fast. I want to be professional about this.
