Nasty Place, Nasty People

Pros

Excellent salary, concentrated industry expertise.

Cons

A vicious office culture that valued nothing except consultant revenue. Because support services are viewed as third-class citizens on a good day, leaders of those units were constantly paranoid about justifying their own existence to top management and took it out on their teams. A cruel and joyless office culture.

AlixPartners Response

Thank you for your feedback and candor. Through a number of large firmwide efforts we have made significant progress toward creating a professional, inclusive environment where employees across all of our communities are valued and treated with personal respect. As AlixPartners has grown over the years, we have shifted our culture from being perhaps almost solely focused on our clients to one that is also people centric — with equal focus internally on our people and externally on our clients. While we are proud of where we are today, we are always striving to improve and would welcome a discussion on your personal experience and how we can further progress. Please feel free to reach out to me in confidence.” – Carrie Holtz, People Business Partner - Corporate Services

Pros

The firm gives its people the platform to have immediate impact on client projects on day one. Engagements are complex and challenging because the firm lives up to its tag line “when it really matters”. The messaging from leadership at the all-firm meeting and overall sentiment show they care about their people and have a desire to see you succeed at the organization.

Cons

For some new hires, the AlixPartners’ approach to engagement delivery can be challenging to execute. The firm should invest more time and energy to formally train all staff on best practices and (any new updated) approach to improving engagement delivery.
