Overall it's a good firm. Join if you're a senior professional, stay away if you're a junior person and want to grow. - Associate AlixPartners Employee Review

Pros

Compensation and benefits are probably the best in the consulting world. It is hard to imagine something better. Base salary is a tad lower than other consulting firms, but the comp structure is variable, so when you put in those long hours on a project, you're rewarded immediately. This is not discretionary, there is a formula for that. Benefits are fully covered by the firm. Work hours are flexible and they are respectful of needed/booked time off.

Cons

Career advancement is way slower than in other firms. You could be a partner at other firm and still be a VP/manager leve al AlixPartners. Bonuses and promotions are huge black boxes: communication on how they are calculated is non existant.
