If specifically for healthcare/life sciences, ZS no question

Avoid WMP. I interviewed with WMP after a couple of friends accepted offers to join their healthcare practice and tried to lure me. Both are now regretting their decisions and finding it difficult to exit. WMP's healthcare practice seems to be in decline. Engagements are more staff augmentation type work and rudimentary digital transformation engagements. The two verticals WMP has some success in are payer and dental & ancillary. Health systems (provider) has had difficulty gaining traction and been struggling with weak leadership for years. Life sciences has struggled to keep a senior leader and is in decline. M&A vertical is cyclical work mostly short term superficial due diligences.

ZS is a a great choice if you are looking to specialize in pharma and life sciences. For other areas of healthcare explore your options with Big 4, Guidehouse, ECG, Kaufman Hall, and some other niche players.

Having previously worked at WMP, I second this.

Payer group probably has the most interesting work in HLS, but pipeline wasnt very good when I left and most of it has become rather blah staff aug work. Provider group has toxic leaders and hasn’t sold much work at all. Overall, HLS felt overly political and often times quite toxic.

I like many parts of HLS, but unfortunately, I agree that the group has been in a decline. The overall HLS practice lead is a terrific leader though and I have hope he will help drive improvement.

WMP?

What is WMP?

WMP is West Monroe Partners. I have limited knowledge of both, so for what limited value it’s worth, I would say ZS for life sciences/biotech and WMP for payer/provider.

Recently joined ZS as an MBA hire (really enjoying it, all COVID things considered), looked at a few other healthcare focused firms but WMP was not one of them......
