Econ Consulting v. Boutique MC
Hi all,
I'm currently deciding between a top economic consulting firm (Cornerstone, AG, NERA, etc.) and a boutique (Navigant, FTI, etc.) with entry-level full-time offers within their healthcare groups. Any thoughts on flexibility of exit opps and future MBA placement, skill development and overall interest of work?
Thanks in advance.
Just to clarify, do you mean FTI Consulting? If so, they do a lot of Econ and Fin consulting, litigation consulting (which I can tell you from experience is pretty much doing econ consulting for lawyers who then present the results to their clients) and CF. This would be good for sticking to finance but not general consulting. FTI says they do 'strategy' but in reality it's quite limited.
Also Navigant has over 30 office locations and is not boutique. Navigant would perhaps be considered tier 3/3.5. Still a good firm.
For MBA placement it may depend on your goals. If you want to stick to econ consulting and stay in that world then take a tier 1 econ firm, otherwise Navigant wouldn't be a bad choice.
Thanks for the insight. Yes I meant FTI Consulting -- didn't realize the niche casework they covered.
In terms of goals, I was considering getting an MBA after a few years and then potentially recruiting for management consulting at that time. Do you think that choosing econ consulting would limit future marketability in that sense?
