AlixPartners šŸ , how easy is it to go from Europe to the US (NY, Boston or San Fran) for a) a permanent transfer and b) a 1 year assignment. All pre-covid

a) is doable, just need MD support as with everything else at the firm - realize thatā€™s not as precise an answer as you may like, but really we are a firm with few rules
b) See A, but I have not personally seen this done other than for visa reasons

Agree with AP1. Iā€™ve seen quite a few cases of a). Once you are in the US, the firm doesnā€™t care where you are located as so you can live in any of the cities you mentioned. I think b) is tough. We donā€™t have a formal program like that and I donā€™t know how you are going to get staffed.

Agree with both posts above. Know several people in our practice who came from Europe to US (already AP employees though). Havenā€™t seen anyone do the second and suspect it would be difficult if not impossible.
