How is AT Kearney viewed? Is it seen as a leading consulting firm or with significanlty less regard than MBB?

Good but not the best

Strongly underrated!check latest German top-Business magazine "Manager Magazin". ATK hits three times Top position (in Procurement, Manufacturing and Supply Chain Management):1) http://www.manager-magazin.de/unternehmen/beratertest/0,2828,494193,00.html2) http://www.manager-magazin.de/unternehmen/beratertest/0,2828,494193-2,00.htmlThey are also very strong in IT&Telecommunications.

interesting study – provides probably the good picture of ATK: among the top in Procurement, Manufacturing, Supply Chain Management and IT, not within the top 5 in strategy, organization, marketing, restructuring, change management, risk management and innovationi.e. ATK is quite strong in "operations" projects, but not seen as competent for real strategic assignments.

So are they good? If you get offered a role with them should you take it? Could it be MBBBA?

So are they good?Yes but only in some areas among the very bestIf you get offered a role with them should you take it?Depends on a) which other offers you haveb) what kind of work you would like to do – ATK will offer you more operations- projects (procurement, manufacturing, supply chain management) and less pure strategy work(By the way I didn't)Could it be MBBBA?No – the third B (BAH) is already questionable – ATK is for sure a good company, but not on level with McK and BCG (as are Oliver Wyman, ADL, Monitor, Roland Berger, OC&C)
