If you redefine common terms as you go, you should at least give the reader a heads up. Nobody uses “big 4” for MBB and Accenture. Those are not the same type of companies.

There's nothing quite so "tell me you worked for Accenture without telling me you worked for Accenture" as referring to MBB and Accenture as "Big 4".

It's like Deloitte consultants referring to MBBD.

I'm pretty sure that's just a reddit meme, but I guess it's funny someone took it seriously?

The whole thread is debating who’s sitting in the BIG4 and all I see is companies trying to belong on musical chairs. What’s strangest to me is we’re not in an early-Schumpeter cycle, seats should be well-established by now, it’s been half a century.
It is well established, which is why it’s somewhat funny when someone “disagrees”.
