May I know how WLB in this company, I see in glassdoor and ambitions contains positive and negative. Is it worth to join? Is it useful for me to enhance my career for long run?

The right mix of zero tech strategy combined with zero tech building with no resources on client site and a bunch of angry consultants sitting in a local office all complaining about RTO and being paid under market? Plenty of those orgs just like Slalom.
I’ve had multiple projects fixing Slalom eff ups
My only impression of them is that they just try to dig their nails in and create garbage output that convinces the client they need to stay around longer than planned
I’m not going to say that we don’t do the same in a lot of instances but Slalom have consistently been the most underhanded and slimy that I’ve dealt with
All that to say, I sure hope there isn’t a next Slalom and wish this Slalom would buzz off
I’ve heard good things and am impressed by former Slalom employees that left 5-10 years ago.

You think Slalom competes with MBB, Deloitte and Accenture??
It depends what you call « competes with » but in my market, they have pretty much the same clients as the big4 and ACC and they win the occasional multi-millions RFP against us. Mostly in the cloud or SF space. Are they in the same category? Nope. Do they compete on some niche offerings? Probably.
The only times I have interacted with Slalom at large clients were when they had been exited (one at a bank and the other at a med tech), they left a lot of mess but meant big $$$$s for PwC.
M1 I don’t doubt that
But anecdotally, every clean up project I’ve had has been ACN or Slalom and never any of the other big 4 or MBB
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have some weird pride thinking D never screws up, but I do have a bone to pick with Slalom
Wassssaasaaaa 👋

You are a PE-owned sweatshop sir, not a serious outfit like Slalom
Why would you want to be the next slalom?
Bringing Slalom in this list is a joke!
Slalom is an average firm on all factors. It’s where B students thrive — not where high achievers aim.
I had a friend who was unemployed for over 12 months. He finally got offers from 2 firms - Slalom and a WITCH firm. He chose the WITCH firm. I don’t know anything about Slalom, but that told me everything I needed to know.
Slalom does tech consulting?
Have only had bad experiences with slalom
I’m guessing OP also considers plain stale bread a gourmet meal.
