Anyone ever made the switch from Alvarez & Marsal to AlixPartners or vice versa? Curious to hear thoughts on the differences. Manager/SVP level if it matters.

To answer a couple of these questions for AP disputes/investigations: you are generally required to live close to an office, though we have made exceptions in the past. Remote work is MD dependent, but most if not all MDs I have worked with do not care if you work remote.

We really offer flexibility in terms of coming in to the office. Travel is pretty little in our line of work, but you get the occasional client meeting or trial

Happy to chat. I’m not in DC office but frequently visit and work with those folks.

What’s the pay range for manager at A&M? Assuming it’s substantially higher than here with the bonus structure.

That’s a very difficult question to answer because of how incredibly variable A&M’s comp structure is. From what I’ve been told about AP’s pay ranges, there are A&M managers who make less than half, and A&M managers who make more than double, their AP equivalents. But on average I think it’s pretty close from the people I’ve spoken to

Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?

But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
