I don’t get some firms’ org chart. Its all jumbled. Wouldn’t it make sense to organize by industry then functional? (E.g. Corp Strat Partner, HC Partner all report up to a [Healthcare] Partner)

Others have Industries reporting to a Functionality. Doesnt make much sense to me that way

For many types of works, the industry is less important than the type of work being performed. To take a basic example, why should there be 10 separate strategy practices within a firm all working in different industries? Makes no sense

Don’t most firms do that? I know PwC does at least

A1 what is a strategist specialized in manufacturing going to bring to a bank? It makes way more sense to organize by industry with a few specific exceptions (such as cybersecurity)

Most companies do a lot of M&A. That jumbles up everything, not just org charts

P2, what I'm saying is that in SOME areas it's more useful to specialize by function or area, rather than by industry first.
So for example, someone who's developed technology strategies across multiple industries and clients would probably be more successful at developing a technology strategy for Client X in Industry Y than some who has more general strategy experience in Industry Y but knows nothing about technology

A1 you wouldn’t have a strategy consultant do implementation work. You organize by industry for revenue and HR purposes and then have your functions fall across that. It’s also better for cross-selling work. If you organize by function only, there is minimal incentive to work together across functions in the firm. When you organize by industry, there is incentive at the partner level to work together across functions and provide more cohesive services to the client.
