What you described is the expected behavior, since Slicer by default shows image slices aligned to anatomical axes (and not to the image axes). [Click rotate to volume plane button](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/read-prostate-mr-image-failed/3423/2?u=lassoan) to align slice views to image axes.

If you use a recent nightly version of Slicer (I would recommend it) then in Segment Editor module you can see a warning button next to the master volume selector in case of non-image-axis-aligned slice views during segmentation - clicking the button aligns the slice views.
