The management consulting benchmark contains firms that provide external advice and expertise to an organization's senior leaders. Employees often spend large amounts of time away from the office, providing consulting services or being involved in business development and sales. This benchmark only includes Women employees. We use woman and man because most of our customers are using binary options.
Emerging

We consider this an emerging benchmark: it has enough data available for us to use bootstrapping to create a representative sample. As the sample grows in size, some scores may slightly change. Our research has shown that our bootstrapped scores are consistent with our standard benchmarks. Read more about the methodology.
