Happy Friday folks! Wanted to understand exit opps from Alix Partners. Could someone share insights into what type of roles are typical exits from Director roles, especially in PE/VC or industry? Also, if you don’t mind sharing Comp ranges for the exits (e.g. PE ops), that would be much appreciated. Thanks fam!

People don’t enter our firm to exit, It is the exit opportunity. Not trying to be pompous but it is true. Also if you enter at the Director level you will be an expert in your area - so you’ll exit to that area.

Hey! You’ll get some anecdotal info here, but if you want a full view of it do head over to LinkedIn.

IMO there isn’t a better tool (yet) for career mapping with as much data to back it up. You can see where AP employees typically come from and what they exit to (also at what level).

Have you tried it?

Keep in mind: we’re made up of a very diverse set of people coming from different backgrounds. The exits depend more on our case experience, and cultural fit rather than us being at AP.

My own anecdotal answer: I’ve seen directors go to VP roles, C suite roles, MD roles at other firms, and senior operational roles at large PE funds. Most of them stay though, being a director here can be a pretty sweet / career making gig.

AP3 what industry?
