Pros

Very flexible with time off and personal matters. Excellent contract rates. Very independent work environment, little micro-managing. Great, respectful management.

Cons

Transition from contract to permanent position is brutal. Little to no feedback about what to expect regarding contract. Rate is drastically cut from contract to permanent position. Earned bonus program is poorly structured - you actually get paid less as you work more. Will bring you contract at a different title, then bump you down once you "convert" over to permanent.

Pros

AlixPartners only hires the best of the best and even those have to pass a rigorous test. As a result, the professionals at the firm are not only smart, but engaging and well-rounded. They do well under pressure, but also enjoy collaborating. The clients and cases the firm is involved with are typically crisis driven and provide a great professional challenge. As a result, the firm is personally and professionally challenging and rewarding.

Cons

Because the nature of the work is time critical and often crisis driven, and AlixPartners employees inherently strive towards success, often times there is no delineation between work life and personal life. The firm rewards you monetarily for the sacrifices, but at some point, the extra money may not be worth the sacrifice.
