“VCG is professional, committed, prepared and articulate. Their deliverables reflected strong teamwork. They were respectful of their client’s time by providing agendas, pre-read and always asked for feedback to ensure they were delivering on expectations. I appreciate their personal investment in their professional development which was evident in their deliverables and recommendations. We will leverage all of their work to make marked improvements in our business.”

“VCG far surpassed our expectations. We gave the team two very different questions to solve; one was clearly definable while the other was quite ambiguous. They did an excellent job of using the numerous resources available to them to tailor their answers to each question extremely well. We would absolutely recommend them to colleagues in the future.”
— Matt Wartenbe, Senior Launch Program Manager at LinkedIn
“The VCG team did an excellent job on a very tough analytical problem that our company had previously tried to crack and came up empty-handed on. The VCG team were very tenacious and taught themselves some quite advanced analytical techniques en route to answering the question. Additionally their final presentation was very slick - well thought out and put together. The team was a pleasure to work with: they were hard working, receptive to feedback and always met their deliverables. I would employ them again in the future without hesitation.”
— Miles Tomlinson, Head of Support Operations at Square
