Considering an offer as Director at AlixPartners. I’m an ex-McKinsey with experience in private equity and corporate mostly in commercial transformation. My free seems low: $440K combined base + bonus. Thoughts?

That seems pretty much market for your experience unless you were a partner at McKinsey or meaningfully climbed the ladder in your corporate role.

How many YOE? And what’s your current TC?

I thought Alix and McKinsey had beef?

Jokes aside…the beef you’re probably thinking of is lawsuits between AP’s founder Jay Alix and McK related to conflicts of interests in restructuring business; this beef does not extend into the culture of AP at all.

Offer seems good to me. You haven't shared where you are now comp wise so it's hard to provide thoughts. What is holding you back?

Thank you for the replies Fishes. I’m at 310 so based on that it obviously seems good. But I have a 9-7 cushy job (McKinsey was my previous jobs for clarity), and I’ve understood from digging a bit around that with my 20 YOEs and background I could be aiming for 500+ at A&M for example.

What’s holding me back: maybe I can make more somewhere else, and with the new Partner level the distance between Director and MD at AP seems to have just gotten longer. Thoughts?

Why don’t you let me know when you leave you’re current cushy corporate job. I’ll be happy to take it.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
