Vault.com, the career website, has released a list of top 10 consulting firms to work for in Asia Pacific. The ranking was based from a survey to consultants who are currently employed at different firms in the industry.<\/p>\n
In choosing an employer, there are many factors that come into play. To properly reflect a firm\u2019s status as an employer, Vault\u2019s list is based on the following weighted formula: 30% prestige, 15% satisfaction, 15% firm culture, 15% compensation, 10% work-life balance, 10% overall business outlook, and 5% promotion policies.<\/p>\n
