Pros

There are so many pros to working in talent acquisition as a recruiter but here are a few: - At Slalom, Talent Acquisition and HR are separate departments. Slalom makes a huge investment in the talent team, in terms of career development and training. There is a clear career path and also lots of learning and soft-skills training opportunities. - There is a national and global talent acquisition network that you are a part of that you can leverage - There are lots of internal initiatives, with Talent Acquisition or otherwise, that you have the flexibility and opportunity to be a part of in order to enrich your daily job and career - Talent Acquisition employees are true business partners with the hiring managers, who work actively in the community to make strong connections instead of sitting back and waiting for resumes or interviews - Strong focus and outcome-oriented approach to inclusion, diversity, and equity as it relates to recruitment. - Slalom really protects its people, and does not lay off its employees as demonstrated during the pandemic and the economic recession. Really protects and respects their recruiters.

Cons

No major cons. Only thing I would mention is that Slalom is expanding globally and can be a bit slow in adopting an international mindset.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
