The six airlines I have flown for all had a similar view - that the cabin crew would initiate evacuation if the aircraft had any signs of fire, smoke, break up or odd inclination (ie indicative of a gear collapse or finishing up on uneven ground, such as in an excursion onto rough terrain). Some operators may require the Captain to initiate the evac, others may permit the Captain to direct the c/c not to evac if they believe the conditions are safer inside the aircraft.
I would suggest that in this case, perhaps it was safer to keep the passengers inside the aircraft if it had a low speed excursion rather than throw them down slides onto uneven, slippery ground to stand around in freezing conditions - less injuries, better control over the passengers, less risk of them wandering off in the way of other traffic or getting lost...

Looking at that picture, I see not the slightest point in evacuating. Why would you be surprised at no evac? With an evac there will be injuries, and it will be a very expensive and extended downtime replacing slides etc. And the environment you are ordering people out into should be a consideration - it doesn't look very hospitable to me! Safest environment choice is to stay on board, unless of course circumstances change.

Captain supposed that TWR gave him incorrect info about friction coefficiet. After touch down they skidded and veered out of RWY.
Lately Ural Airlines declared that incident was caused by crosswind.
VQ-BLO, flight Yekaterinburk - Moscow, nobody from more then hundreat pax had wounded
