Prophet is actually quite big in the brand/marketing space, they recruit at least from Kellogg and I assume other M7 schools as well. It’s obviously a more niche area so they don’t have offices everywhere, but anyone who works in brand knows Prophet.
Really rude of all these ppl to be crapping on a firm just bc it’s not generalist strategy consulting - there’s a lot more to life than MBB

I’m very specifically interested in branding and innovation work, so idk, I more meant like reputation for people enjoying the job and having pretty positive experiences/opportunities

Anything else?

Lippincott isn’t the most known, but has done some iconic work.

People I know who placed into top firms have been rejected from Prophet. They create top caliber work. That being said, for general brand awareness they do nor score high.

Not saying that it’s “better” than other firms etc. just saying that while small, they are selective. I also genuinely do like their work and the people I’ve met there

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before. Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?
