Slalom-best companies to work for 2019

    Transparency is fundamental at this consultancy: At monthly State of the Office meetings, managers answer questions on the spot via “Ask Me Anything” or “Elephant in the Room.” Informal meals and fireside chats give employees the chance to interact with higher-ups. And there’s no executive suite here: Senior leadership sits in an open workspace called “the pit.” Read Great Place to Work review here.
