They will probably rebrand in a year or two, either because the name is confusing or they continue to acquire other functions and it happens organically.

This might be worse than Ernst & Young switching to EY without realizing the results of an "EY" google search.

The name is terrible...but let's not act like PwC (or any firm that matter) acquires firms this size on a regular basis. This is a billion dollar acquisition - there are not many more firms like Booz.

You have had consolidation with MBB at the top tier and then Accenture, EY, KPMG, Deloitte, IBM as the next tier of do-it-all firms. Maybe you toss Capgemini in for the discussion but they don't have the scale of the aforementioned.

In terms of other decent size consulting firms still out there...ZS Associates, Oliver Wyman, Roland Berger (mainly in Europe), LEK, AT Kearney, Point B, Booz Allen Hamilton (only government), Parthenon...those are off the top of my head.

Deloitte bought Monitor, PwC goes with Booz, KPMG has had multiple acquisitions lately but not in the strategy space (Link Analytics and Cynergy) and EY continue to grow out its FS capabilities primarily.
