Curious about AlixPartners as a firm to start at after undergrad, wondering if anyone would be willing to chat about their experiences?

Currently a senior with a couple corporate strat internships and a summer at B4.

Thank you in advance!

Don’t think they hire much from undergrad

like

Only their Corporate Strategy practice hires out of UG (formerly Galt & Co.)

Earliest the rest of the firm hires is at the post MBA level. Excellent firm but from what I’ve heard not the best place to learn skills as a young analyst.

like

As SM1 said, not the best place for an undergrad or even an MBA hire with under 5-6 YOE, especially without any consulting experience. You’ll be expected to hit the ground running with little support. The training and apprenticeship are less organized and formalized than many other firms. The firm is great for external, experienced hires though, but not homegrown talent

Thank you all for your input, makes a lot of sense - still going to keep it in mind but can definitely understand what the potential drawbacks are!

SO and I got in to a disagreement on the background of Indian tech CEOs. It appears that they are all from 1 or 2 major communities in India.

While he thinks that its genetics/being naturally gifted that got them to where they are I believe it's the environment & discipline that made them successful. We are not from said communities but curious to hear your thoughts on who is more accurate.

I recently was let go (in lieu of accepting my two weeks) and I should have received my March expense check by the end of April per the employment agreement (submitted the report April 1, let go before mid April).

How do I get my money from them? It's a few hundred dollars

Sorry if this isn't the right bowl for this question - I've checked a few.
