Looks like Big 4 dominated this year's list. IB's, and M/B/B management consulting were snubbed on this year's list. Come on Goldman, MS are not even top 10.

let's be honest: most b-school rankings are totally off. the Vault's "most prestigious i-bank" rankings are equally screwed up. why would you expect this list to be any different? perhaps somebody's paying somebody else off.
agree with danbush, i'm suprised MBB isn't on it...
When I started college, Big4 firms were paying $45,000 with no metion of bonuses, apart from a dismal $2,000 sign-on. This year, they are shelling out up to $60,000 base, approximatley $5k sign-on and good bonus potential, which isn't bad at 45-55 hr per week.
what position is the 45-55 hours per week for? im starting to apply to the I-banks in NY for 2008 as an analyst, particularly Meryl Lynch. Any advice on how to go about it? any help would be great cheers
Hey I consider the Fortune rankings a good thing, means more kids get sucked into Big4 and leaves IB, consulting, etc for the rest of us.
Hell, even Bear Stearns made the cut, although they are well below Walgreens.
Hmmm, Enterprise Rent-a-Car - nice one. Didn't see that one coming.
While we can all sit back and claim these rankings are ridiculous, I think they are pretty good for -most- people. M/B/B and IB are clearly excellent places to begin a career if you are okay with putting in the hours and sacrificing a few years or more of your life. I believe the rankings are just missing a footnote that reads: (1) Without sacrificing your youth.
They were talking about Big4 accounting roles, not banking.
Well I guess I should now redirect my resume to Macy's instead of Lehman.
