Prestige ranking among consulting firms

Wondering what are the perceptions of prestige between MBB, T2, restructuring etc.

For me it's -

MBB: McKinsey, Bain, BCG

T2: OW, S&, LEK, EY-P, K

Restructuring: FTI, Alix, A&M

Vault makes a consulting ranking. People crap on them but they are IMO the best thing we have in the US. The top ten lists on forums usually unravel to:

1.M  

2.B  

3.B  

4.The firm where I work 

5-10. Whatever firms are most similar to the firm where I work.
