Why the recent love for S&? My understanding of their core business is operation / value creation / PMI and but weaker in corporate/ growth strategy compared to OW, EYP, and LEK. Looking for more inputs.

What nonesense is this? We do more traditional corporate strategy than LEK and EYP, which are historically diligence shops.

Are you talking about PEVC? That’s a subgroup which is like 5% of total strategy revenue.

Never done PMO work. Mainly growth strategy and a little ops strategy work.

Agreed with S&1. Was at S& before MBB and all I did was corporate strategy. It’s a solid shop and has gained traction.

Out of interest, where do you work OP? Trying to gauge what angle this is coming from.

Never understood the brand appeal either. IMO their attachment to PWC was a mistake from a branding perspective. Went to a top 10 bschool and very, very few people recruited for S& compared to LEK/EYP

Interesting…went to a top 10 b school as well and slot of people recruited for S&.

We do plenty of diligence too

DS is CDD, PEVC is ODD. Other diligence types are outside S&.

Interesting. So y’all do more corporate and growth strategy than post merger and value creation work?

One of the T2 mentioned

S& is quite struggling in Germany - loosing partners left and right, so no love from my side
