A lot has changed in the past few years in management consulting. BCG Digital is the fastest growing party of the org. You have MBAs working along side with Engineers, CS PhDs, system architects. We're hiring former CERN staff, MIT (not Sloan) grads.

The Amazon apocalypse in retail made Global F2000 clients realize they needed to change how they treated tech. They wanted to buy, we found a way to sell it.

Great to hear about these changes! My observation is that strategy plays out in years and requires customer/industry insights that usually comes only from a lot of experimentation and error. The very nature of consulting, where you flit from case to case (even if in the same industry), seldom seeing what failed and why, makes me think they are unlikely to have this kind of deep customer/industry insight.
