West Monroe earns top recognition on inaugural Where You Work Matters List for building high-quality careers. Firm is among just 22 companies nationwide - and the only professional services firm - to earn Platinum in all three categories from the Schultz Family Foundation, Burning Glass Institute, and Harvard Business School CHICAGO - March 24, 2026 - West Monroe, a global business and technology consulting firm, today announced it has attained the highest level of recognition on the inaugural Where You Work Matters List, a new benchmark for how effectively companies create real career opportunity, mobility, and long-term value for their people. West Monroe is among a small and distinguished group of just 22 companies nationwide - and the only professional services firm - recognized at the Platinum level for all three categories out of more than 1,750 employers assessed. The distinction is awarded across early-career opportunity, career growth and job stability, and underscores the firm's long-standing belief that developing people is inseparable from building a great business. "Our mission is to build the next generation of leaders, and this recognition is powerful proof that we are accomplishing that mission. It's reflected in our people's success and fulfillment every day, both within West Monroe and across our growing alumni community," said Gil Mermelstein, CEO of West Monroe. West Monroe has intentionally built a model where people are given meaningful responsibility early, supported as they grow, and trusted to lead. That investment in its people isn't separate from its business strategy - it is its strategy. Gil Mermelstein CEO at West Monroe At a time when AI and other forces are rapidly reshaping the nature of work, the model of empowerment, innovation, and growth is becoming even more critical in careers. West Monroe's focus on developing leaders early - equipped to adapt, learn, and lead through change - positions its people and its clients to navigate an increasingly complex, transformation-driven environment. The Where You Work Matters List is a collaboration between the Burning Glass Institute, the Schultz Family Foundation, and Harvard Business School's Managing the Future of Work Project. It evaluates real-world career outcomes for more than 12 million workers across 923 occupations, making it one of the most comprehensive, data-driven assessments of job quality in the U.S. today. "As AI continues to reshape the labor market, the companies best positioned to thrive are those that have built strong, sustainable talent pipelines," said Rajiv Chandrasekaran, Managing Director of the Schultz Family Foundation. "The organizations recognized this year stand out for their ability to create high-quality jobs and develop their workforce - giving them a distinct advantage as they navigate both disruption and opportunity in an AI-driven world." Companies recognized on the Where You Work Matters List stand out not just for how they hire - but for how they develop, retain, and advance their people over time. Unlike traditional workplace rankings that emphasize culture or benefits alone, the list measures whether companies create sustained economic opportunity - through strong entry points, clear pathways for advancement, and long-term career stability. Platinum recognition - the list's highest honor - signals exceptional performance across all three dimensions. For West Monroe, those outcomes are the result of a fundamentally different approach to consulting - and to talent. "We have intentionally built a workplace where people don't just join - they stay for a long time because they grow and end up building lasting careers. That is how we measure success," said Tanya Moore, Chief People Officer at West Monroe. For those who believe AI will narrow consulting careers, its experience shows the opposite - when you invest in people and pair it with AI, you expand opportunity, accelerate development, and grow future-proof careers while delivering outstanding outcomes for its clients. Tanya Moore Chief People Officer at West Monroe West Monroe's approach is reflected in its employee experience data: * 95% say people at West Monroe genuinely care about one another * 94% say they are trusted with significant responsibility * 86% say West Monroe is a great place to work * 71% say their work has a meaningful impact West Monroe is consistently recognized as a top workplace and consulting firm. Recent honors include Newsweek's America's Greatest Workplaces for Entry Level Talent, Forbes' America's Best Management Consulting Firms, Business Insider's America's Top Management Consulting Firms, and Vault's Most Prestigious Consulting Firms.

West Monroe recognized by Forbes as one of America's Best Management Consulting Firms in 2026, and among top AI consultancies. Mar 17, 2026, 10:30 ET Investments in proprietary AI tools and new ways of working accelerate the firm's shift to an AI-native consulting model, reinforcing West Monroe's leadership in delivering speed-to-value for clients CHICAGO, March 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - West Monroe, a global business and technology consulting firm, has been named to the Forbes list of America's Best Management Consulting Firms 2026, recognizing the firm's reputation and consulting capabilities. West Monroe was one of only 37 firms nationwide recognized in the Artificial Intelligence category, one of the most competitive and highly sought-after categories in this year's rankings. The recognition comes as West Monroe advances an AI-native consulting model, embedding new capabilities and ways of working to the point that AI is now embedded across 100% of its consulting delivery and offerings. The annual ranking, compiled by Forbes in partnership with Statista, identifies the top-performing consulting firms in the United States based on recommendations from more than 10,000 industry experts and evaluations from over 1,250 clients. Firms are assessed across industries and functional consulting areas, with recognition reflecting both peer recommendations and client experience. "At West Monroe, we believe AI is fundamentally reshaping how businesses operate - and how consulting delivers value," said Gil Mermelstein, CEO at West Monroe. "Being recognized by Forbes is a testament to the impact our teams are delivering for clients as they navigate complex transformation. We're investing deeply in AI capabilities, talent, and tools so we can help organizations significantly increase their speed to value and have certainty in their consulting engagement outcomes." The recognition coincides with West Monroe's continued investment in AI - embedding capabilities to develop innovative client value solutions and accelerate consulting delivery. In addition to building a suite of assets and accelerators in recent years on the Intellio(R) platform, the firm rolled out OpenAI's Enterprise ChatGPT platform and Google AI Studio to its entire workforce, and Codex and Claude Code to its software engineering team, giving more than 2,000 employees secure access to generative AI for client delivery, research, analysis, and solution development. By giving teams and clients access to the best certified technologies in the areas they work in, West Monroe is advancing AI-native operating models that enable people to rapidly prototype ideas, build AI-powered solutions, and create outcomes that work inside different industry environments every day. This approach allows teams to see what's possible with AI and execute ideas in hours and days - not months - and move beyond individual productivity gains to enterprise impact. "Most organizations are still working to connect AI experimentation to measurable business outcomes," said Bret Greenstein, Chief AI Officer at West Monroe. "Our focus is helping clients move beyond pilots and proofs of concept toward scalable, production systems that deliver real value. To accomplish this, AI is now embedded in how work gets done, from strategy to operations, and our teams are using these tools every day alongside clients to rapidly accelerate speed to insight and execution." West Monroe's ecosystem of secure, enterprise-grade AI tools enables employees and client delivery across the firm, including: * Enterprise ChatGPT: Broad, flexible generative AI platform for open-ended exploration, custom GPTs, task automation, and personalized workflows. * Claude Code & Codex: Practice approved AI coding and agent tools for developers that accelerate software development, infrastructure modernization, and agentic workflows on complex client systems. * Google AI Studio: Low-code AI app builder used to prototype agentic workflows, create client-ready demos, and publish lightweight AI tools into West Monroe's internal AI App Store. * West Monrobot: Front door to IT, HR, and internal systems support, including ticket submissions, access requests, account recovery, and critical updates. * Glean: Enterprise search and knowledge discovery platform that helps employees find internal documents, systems, experts, and insights across the firm. * Nigel: West Monroe's homegrown AI platform for proprietary workflows, accelerators, prompt libraries, and access to multiple AI models. * Intellio(R) Suite: A suite of AI-powered accelerators and analytics platforms that embed intelligence into deal execution, operations, and value creation across industries. West Monroe has also developed internal AI tools highlighted by Fortune, including a staffing assistant that helps resource managers build project teams more quickly and fairly by matching skills, asking clarifying questions, and reducing bias. "Our goal is to make AI practical, accessible, and valuable in everyday work," said Tanya Moore, Chief People Officer at West Monroe. "By investing in training, leadership engagement, and hands-on learning, we're ensuring our teams don't just have access to AI - they understand how to use it thoughtfully, creatively, and responsibly in service of our clients." Forbes' recognition in the Artificial Intelligence category reflects West Monroe's growing role helping organizations move from AI experimentation to scaled, operational impact. The firm has modernized all of its consulting offerings to incorporate proprietary IP and AI-enabled delivery tools, enabling teams to work faster, automate processes, and deliver greater certainty of outcomes for clients. In December, the firm announced its flagship Agentic Transformation service offering, which introduced a practical framework for integrating AI agents into business operations, governance, and workflows. The approach helps organizations combine strategy, technology, data, and change management. Across industries, West Monroe is delivering measurable results through its proprietary AI-enabled assets and approach: * Up to 65% time savings in M&A diligence analysis: West Monroe's Intellio(R) Advantage platform accelerates complex diligence workflows through AI-enabled analysis and automation. * 1,000+ hours saved in policy analysis: Intellio(R) Policy uses AI-powered regulatory intelligence to automate policy monitoring and analysis. * 3.6 million lines of legacy code being modernized: Using Intellio(R) Evolve, West Monroe is helping a commercial software company rebuild a 40-year-old mainframe ERP system, accelerating modernization and helping manufacturers transition aging systems to scalable, AI-enabled architectures. West Monroe's differentiated approach in AI emphasizes business-led strategy, embedded governance and controls, workforce transformation, measurable ROI with certainty of outcomes, and industry-specific application. This approach delivers measurable results for clients every day - from $75 million in value gained from automating revenue recognition and service delivery for a global workforce management provider, to reducing reporting time by 65% for an HR compliance solutions provider, to re-imagining an entire workforce strategy in just three weeks for 17.7% annual cost savings. The recognition as one of America's Best Management Consulting Firms in 2026 adds to a growing list of recent industry honors for West Monroe, including being named to Business Insider's America's Top Management Consulting Firms 2026, recognition in the Vault 2026 Most Prestigious Consulting Firms rankings, and inclusion by leading analyst firms for its capabilities in AI Technical Services and Digital Transformation.
