BCG in Europe

I noticed BCG was very low on the vault Best european consulting companies list (No. 21).
Any ideas on why this is or how BCG is perceived in Europe? I am from Holland and what I can see the Amsterdam office is doing very good and also is right up there with Mck and Bain.

Fuck the Vault - BCG or Mck will sort you for life. It's hard work, but it's good. I am not talking from personal experience, but from chats with consultants.

 

The replies are exactly what I have been thinking and I have only had good experiences with their company and consultants so far. Thanks for the awnsers, wasn't cracking on BCG because of these rankings or implying this ranking was true. Just thought it was quite strange as I don't experience BCG this way in their Amsterdam office and thought it would be interesting to discuss.

 

They're definitely very strong (Top 3) in France, and pretty good in the DACH region as well. I would say their reputation in the US is just a tad stronger, but they are certainly one of the best choices in Europe as well.
