Some great times, some horrible times

Pros

Some of the people there are the some of the best in the industry. Great exposure to a wide variety of engagements and technologies. If you get into the right group, practice and/or supervisors, the projects can be fantastic. Great for aspiring consultants out of school.

Cons

Some of the people here are in positions of authority are horrible to their subordinates. Why and how these people were tolerated always boggled my mind. The only jaded opinion I could ever form, was they either brought in money or they had a MD protecting them.

Pros

Exciting assignments and diverse industries, lots of travel, work with some smart people. Specialized in turnarounds and restructurings only

Cons

Benefits package below average for industry. Business inefficient, mismanagement from top down. Can't manage their own business well. Employees encouraged to let businesses go into bankruptcy vs saving them to increase revenues to Alix Partners. Directors inflate billing hours, while cutting hours of lower level employees and contract personnel, but expected to throw in nonbillable hours. Lower level employees and contract employees treated with disrespect, long hours, pressured to provide nonbillable hours. Concentration of arrogant, condescending employees to newer hires and clients. More restructuring work than actual turnarounds being done. Many employees with accounting background who never owned or operated businesses, causing problems with completing turnarounds
