Tiers or tears? I think Deloitte leads in tears, not so much in tiers

When people say tier 1, they rypically mean Mckinsey, BCG, and Bain
When people say tier 2, they typically mean firms like Oliver Wyman, AT Kearney, LEK, etc.

I love this question - tier 1 is the one you get paid for years of good work - sorry but if you ask this question with only 5 years in the bus you are not even a consultant yet / learn your craft - also strategy is changing and big places have more actual experience behind strategy vs expensive firms who still make slides and white papers - clients know and it is causing the mbbs to rethink market hence go for the skill area vs ranking
