Agree with all of these except the “pay little.” Top consulting firms are crazy expensive to the point we could hire a team of several analysts and a manager for a few years for what we pay them.
Engagements are often around $100k a month and when I go looking for one of the consultants to help in an emergency, I often hear they are busy with something else (another client) and need a day to get the request started. When we’re paying 100k a month you better damn well have one person on deck or able to pivot immediately to us as if they are one of our employees.
