Alvarez & Marsal

"Each person, woman or man, must curate her experience, building connections, selling her skills and capabilities and demonstrating exceptional work to get ahead. In truth, there aren't many female leaders but the ones are very strong and provide a roadmap to success. The organization is constantly working to enhance diversity in all forms, including gender. "

"It really depends on what division or department you're in."

"Build lasting relationships and credibility with your senior leaders! Everyone at A&M is very supportive of you if you are a great performer and work in the way that is expected of you. "

"a lot of thing depends on a team and leader"

"This is 100% a boys club, from the culture to the leadership representation. There is little to no minority representation and diversity & inclusion are nowhere close to the top of priorities for leadership, who hides behind "meritocracy" as an excuse for their apathy. Current senior female leadership has drank the Kool-Aid and bought into the philosophy that you have to sacrifice diversity and inclusion in order to "eat what you kill". The hours are inflexible, so if you're looking to start a family, you will not have the hours to dedicate to raising a child. Overall, this is not a place that fosters the growth of women in a healthy, inclusive, and understanding way. "

"I wasn't prepared for the lack of women and diversity here. I do, however, enjoy the job and the group that I work for. They are very supportive and flexible."

"From day one I have been impressed with the caliber of talent A&M has and continues to attract. Not only have I been impressed with the people at A&M, I genuinely love the work we do."

"It is a guys club and the senior women in the firm are exactly that, strong and powerful women who can hold their own and laugh at what can be little insensitive jokes. I really like it here as it matches my personality but if you are easily offended or are sensitive to guy humor I would not recommend. "

"There is no ceiling at A&M if you work hard and live the culture and values. It's truly a meritocracy where leadership wants staff to grow and succeed."

"I think there are lots of opportunities for career progression at A&M and to work on interesting and engaging projects."

"Great company to work for! Very supportive of their people especially during different stages of your life. The work is vey interesting as we get to solve complex problems daily. "

"If you want it, you can create it, design it and go get it. "

"Understand the travel requirements during the interview process. Ask about flexibility during the interview process even if there is not frequent travel required. "

"Billable hours are king, period."

"Again, be aware of the group you're hiring into. The people you work with directly matter as much if not more than the policies, since the environment is quite entrepreneurial. "
