What are each of MBB and the Tier 2 firms (S&, Kearney, OW, LEK etc) known for in the ANZ market? What type of projects do they mostly do and in which industries? Any other major differentiating factors (e.g. culture, staffing models)?

Kearney has heavy focus on Sourcing.

LEK - M&A & Strategy

In general, there aren't too many points of differentiations as the Aussie market is pretty small and skewed to a few main industries.

Below are the key areas that comes to mind- not MECE for sure

MBB - gov, banks / FI - top end of town, FMCG, airlines (i.e. Qantas and virgin)
LEK - DD, healthcare, land transport, airports
Kearney - banks and FI on the smaller end of town
S& - land transport
OW - risk

Thinking about moving to LA from NY. Is influencer culture as big in LA as it seems? I love the culture and the diversity of thought in the people and culture in NY (of course I’m probably biased). LA has the space and weather I’m looking for but the thing that holds me back is that I’m slightly afraid of LA being consumed by influencer culture. I love the diversity of thought in NY. Is it really like that there or is it just an outside view?
