I want to post here cause this bowl is much more civil - I’ve seen rankings that put Deloitte as second tier beneath MBB in the US for consulting. Is this accurate? For strategy specifically?

I was trying to be nice in answering the first time but there you go pulling out your ruler... .

As BCG pointed out, it really depends on the area of expertise and the market; US is a big country.

It’s like saying, tell me which one is better - Germany or UK. You need some parameters to define the answer.

If you’re asking because you’re trying to find a job, focus on your area of expertise, what you’re trying to get out of it, and the people you’ll be working for, and ask these questions when you interview with them. Prestige is a perception.

For strategy, yes. MBB has more prestige, more competitive recruiting, and higher billing rates for work.

But there are many legitimate reasons for choosing Deloitte and others. Definitely consider the practice area you are interested in and talk to folks at the firms.

Strategy first tier is MBB - MCK, BCG, Bain

This doesn’t mean Deloitte strategy is a bad shop; they aren’t.

I feel like all this tier stuff is a little misleading, like college rankings, because it really comes down to the practice within the firm at the end of the day. There are areas that Accenture, for example, is killing it over everyone, and same with other firms. MBB are obviously great strategy firms, but so is Deloitte. Federal is a whole different animal for example and all of that goes out the window. I take it all with a grain of salt.

Yeah these ranking are far more about prestige than any real assessment of business pipeline, financials, contract awards, service quality...

BCG 1 what about Deloitte strategy as compared to ATK and OW? Who has an edge in recruiting talent and winning work?

Honestly Deloitte Strategy is not a thing. Just like Accenture Strategy is not a thing - I should know 🙄 if you really want to do strategy work it’s MBB and yes to some extent OW or ATK - although I think their ranges are a little bit narrower. Outside of those I would say the best bet is probably a boutique firm instead of the Deloitte/ Accenture/ PWC whatever of the world. Just my two cents.

I cleared 2 rounds of interviews with CGI. The very next day someone from the management team called me up and very readily agreed with me for my expected salary. He said he shall quickly ask the HR team to process my offer letter.

And it's been a week since I haven't heard from anyone. Neither CGI asked me docs nor any HR called me.

What shall I do now? I am currently under the Notice Period.

Hey Recruiters, stop trying to connect with me on LinkedIn when I don’t know you - no you can’t have access to my contact. When you do send me message, maybe do a little home work. And when you do work with a candidate, update them regularly - it’s not that hard.
