Are any of the big 4 firms seen below one another?

Or is it more

McKinsey=Bain=Bcg > D=EY=pwc=kpmg?

Purely talking in terms of prestige. Not sure if that’s even true for MBB but I’ve always wondered if “not all big 4 firms are created equal”

Think Deloitte S&O (if it still exists, not sure how the mapping works these days) and Parthenon within EY are above non-Parthenon EY, PwC, and KPMG Strategy from the quality of work perception, but not sure if that’s actually true in the market

You’ll notice “prestige” isn’t in the equation. Because who cares.

depends on offering. If you're talking about audit then D=E=P=K>MBB

For audit it’s P>D=E=K>MBB

Who cares? We are all trying to leave

But seriously, you can't do client-serving tax or audit at MBB, so it's pretty clear why Deloitte sits so far above.

I think McK is above all
