AlixPartners can you please share about the TC and WLB for new parents?
I'm approached by the AP recruiter and in the final interview process for an SVP role (digital practice).
Already have two other offers (Strategy @ Walmart, 300K TC, and Marketing@ Amazon, 220K TC). 10 YOE
1. Will AP's SVP TC be higher than $300K? What's the breakdown?
2. Would you choose AP over Strategy @ Walmart or Marketing @ Amazon?
3. How difficult is it for new parents? I still want to spend time with my newborn.

Listen out for their contribution to the work. Were they part of the breakthrough (good) or did they claim sole credit for everything, or were they lucky enough to be near to someone else's great work (not so good?) Don't get caught up on executional tics, like their Zoom background or their shoes. It means you're failing to focus on their work and their talent, so you're not giving them a fair chance on what could be a pivotal career move for them.

I feel personally attacked with the zoom background and shoes ☹️
I don’t trust an AD with a bad fashion sense or no fashion sense at all.
Some with great sense for the fashions don’t give a shit about playing their game.

I’ll admit. Was interviewing someone and he was wearing these very tight leather wingtip shoes with no socks, pant cuffs rolled up, and all I could think about was the corns and bunyons and foot pain he was in for this look.

Their nails. Peoples’ nails can tell you all about them.
Robot disagrees!

In person or zoom.
Bluster.
Bonus points if they play a musical instrument. I almost hired an AD solely because she was a drummer.
