Deloitte/Accenture has the best established cyber practices.

@OP - big4 is big4 when it comes to any function. Your question is very open ended and nearly impossible to answer. There are C suit executives who swear on one consulting firm vs another.

It’s a fact that Deloitte has a better name for itself purely based on their talent pool. EY is putting a lot of money in maturing their program. KPMG is going to be the youngest and least mature in the group. I can’t speak for the others from experience.

Either way, you can’t go wrong with any of the 4, and for that matter any company mentioned in the ALM.

Good Luck

Simply speaking the rankings are subject to change at a moments notice and every firm will be able to find something that says they are #1. AKA they are meaningless outside of "Ra-Ra we are the best" chest thumping.

If you want to work for the "Frontrunner" get ready to change firms every few years.

Now it looks like you’re trolling. You asked one question and then provided a non relevant post. Don’t go to a company based on its prestige. Get validation somewhere else

Not trying to troll or look for validation. I mentioned Vault ranking as prestige is usually tied with quality of work and caliber of people.

I also wanted to verify those Vault ranking with you all to see if they were true for those actually in the field. I am just a person trying to get in to one of the top firms and seeing where I should be shooting for, not trying to rub my own back.

I haven’t seen the ALM reports which came as a shock to see those iconic IT companies lower than the Big 4 .

Thank you all for your feedback and links. It has been valuable info as I try to find my next employer.

P2- most of Ps revenue is in government, correct?

Great info, do you have a source?

Any tech companies like IBM or HP are crappy. I came from HP services and big 4 are way better even with less tech people

Hello,
I’m a junior data scientist and in my current job I mostly code using Pyspark (no machine learning) so I would like to work on a side project that could leverage my profile and data science/ML skills. What project would you advice me to work on ? (it can be a kaggle project, or a classic task that you do at your job, or a paper that you read).
I’m overwhelmed by the many suggestions online and would prefer to get a suggestion directly from professionals.
PS : I’m not a beginner.
