How is the performance improvement practice at AlixPartners ? How often do you travel? Are there really very few exits?

Travel is project dependent but mostly every week. Exits are non existent with no career services.

MDs are like any other firm. Some will chew you out and provide no sponsorship, some will still chew you out but will bang the table for you. As with most things in life, YMMV.

Sure, feel free to.

I second that our PI group is very heavily traveled, 75%+ on average.

As far as exits, we do have them and most involuntary exists are purely performance-based (you’ll know if you’re not cutting it), and no exit support exists for that. Regarding voluntary exits, they’re not as common since it’s hard to beat our pay. But, if the work part of the work-life-balance becomes unbearable, most will find a comfortable enough place to land. We don’t place people often but our former client and alumni network is decent enough if you milk it for good options.

Mind if I DM?

Hi there!
I completed the last round of an interview (presentation) last week. Originally they said they would be calling my references & then make an offer accordingly.
Today they updated that they'd like me to travel to their HQ (based in Nordics & I'm in London) for the final round where I'd meet the CEO, the hiring manager and a couple of people in the team.
I don't think I'm the only one in the process - even though initially the last round was the presentation.
What are your thoughts?

How often do you think you will be traveling in 2022 with COVID mostly behind us? In the final interview/negotiation stages with an agency focused on pharmaceutical marketing as an Account Manager. Offer states up to 30% travel (but was told 20% is more realistic). No further info given such as location of accounts I'd be working on or a baseline other AMs travel. Feels like a red flag. Not interested in much travel. Quarterly is manageable. Any insights from others in similar roles??
