I am glad someone has started this thread. I do not need consulting firms thankfully, but I personally know quite a few friends who would be nowhere without them today. So, I am sure there are some good firms out there. I do not want to name names, but if you have had good experiences with some firms lately, you would be doing a lot of people a great favor by posting about them here. I unfortunately never had to deal with consultancies, otherwise I would know more on this. But I am sure a lot of us sajhaites are well informed on this. Help our fellow brethren before they get suckered into 'rogue' firms.
