Most respected consulting firms in tech?

Hello, 
What are the most respected consulting firms in tech?
I want to start my career in a consulting firm that help many different tech companies and then go into tech with the goal of becoming a tech executive in the long run - Which company should I aim for?

MBB / Big 4 / Gartner / Accenture / etc....?

I heard that in general in tech consulting firms are less respected - is that true?
Because Google CEO is former Mckinsey for example, so...  

Can you ask in consulting to work only with companies from one industry (Tech) ?

kind regards.

Thanks for the answer.
Accenture > MBB for tech companies?

Just making sure -  I'm talking about consulting for tech companies and not for companies from various industries about tech...

 

Accenture more implementation especially their tech solutions division, the others are more business focused with tech divisions, McKinsey is among the top but all these companies outsource to experienced consultants as their in-house dries up fast, except those consultants stopped given them that knowledge because they were not paid what it was worth, so you will be on some less than interesting projects these days.
