Consulting Client Insights: Vault Top 50 Consulting Firms
Monadnock Research (VIII N36) - 24 August 2010
Vault has just published its latest list of the top consulting firms, the "Vault 2011 Consulting 50." This year's ranking is not based strictly on the "prestige" factor, which is a ranking of perceptions by consultants of firms other than the one they work for. That listing is still published, but as a separate ranking. Vault's overall 2011 ranking weighs culture, work/life balance; compensation; prestige; business outlook; and transparency. While the Vault rankings might help firms with their college recruiting efforts, the utility for clients is limited. But taking a contrarian view provides some interesting perspective. This Research Note offers insights into what clients can learn from these rankings, and why high scores in some categories aren't necessarily good for your business or your project. The top 10 firms for the current ranking are: (1) Bain, (2) BCG, (3) McKinsey, (4) Analysis, (5) Cambridge Group, (6) Deloitte, (7) Oliver Wyman, (8) A.T. Kearney, (9) Triage, and (10) Censeo.
