SM tc at S& is ~400k for reference
If you’re on partner track you’re definitely gonna do better than you would at Alix

I’m ex-S& and I would go with Alix. Alix will generally match comp of offers, also I got promoted from SVP to director in less than a year after joining. Alix has a far far better culture and is growing and taking away market share.

I’ve been at both... Alix by a wide margin for compensation growth. Promotion path depends on your skillset... the ability to sell projects/grow a practice is valued higher at Alix. You would have better promotion path at S& if you’re more of an SME or delivery specialist.

If S& is offering you Sr Mgr, you should be asking for D at Alix (or $ that would put you at the high range of SVP - ~$400)
