Talk to the guys who poured it and ask why there is no slope.

The walkway has zero slope. The water gathers & slowly runs off towards the house & away from house. I'm wondering if anyway to slope it now

No. When it rains hard it will get into the house. It may or may not happen often but that depends on if you live in Seattle or Phoenix. If you live in Seattle, you need to get it re-done. Phoenix, not so much.

No it needs to be redone.
Did you pay for this? Have you contacted them?
Did you put a level on it?
