Consultants are rarely short of advice for others, but do they practice what they preach when it comes to creating healthy work cultures at their own organizations? Kennedy Information’s Consulting Magazine's annual Best Firms to Work For survey of thousands of consultants found several firms that were earning high praise from their toughest critics: their own employees.

Besides highlighting the cultural strengths of different leading firms, the survey makes visible the difficult demands of a consulting career.
"Consulting firms traditionally demanded that employees completely sacrifice their personal lives for their work," says Consulting Magazine Editor in Chief Jack Sweeney. "Consultants tell us there is still much room for improvement, and we like to believe the magazine's Best Firms survey is helping curtail such sacrifices."
For the rankings, the publication surveyed more than 4,000 US-based consultants at 32 firms. Firms were scored by their employees' responses to questions in six equally-weighted categories: Leadership, Compensation & Benefits, Culture, On the Job, Work/Life, and Career Development.
