All of the big consulting firms are not in Seattle. In fact, only 1 of the big 3 (McKinsey) has an office there and only 2 of the top 8 (as ranked by Vault) investment banks do. Credit Suisse has an office in Portland and that’s it for the entire PNW. Chicago alone has more big consulting firm and top finance firm offices than the entire PNW.

Seattle’s a pretty place with a few very good companies, but it does not make up for the difference between Foster and Kelley in my opinion.
