Consulting Magazine - September 2015

One of the best aspects of our Best Firms to Work For survey is the comprehensive snapshot it provides of the profession.

This year, that’s a pretty interesting snapshot as overall scores increased from 2014. Overall, scores increased in four of the six categories— Career Development, Work/ Life Balance, Leadership and Client Engagement. The Leadership and Client Engagement scores are higher than they’ve been at any point over the last five years. Meanwhile, Compensation & Benefits dipped slightly year on year, while the Culture category saw the biggest drop in 2015. Check out the chart at the bottom of page 8 for the full story and to make year-over-year comparisons from 2011 to 2015.

From an individual firm perspective, The Boston Consulting Group is back for the second straight year atop the Best Firms to Work For ranking. KPMG and Collaborative Consulting are 2015’s newcomers. Meanwhile, Navigate Corporation is the new No. 1 Best Small Firm to Work For.
