i think emerald is in a much better position than other net consultancies because they have been conservative. the losses (financial and staff) they have sustained have been minor relative to its competitors. all in all financials are good relative to their competitors. you can probably find some financial information about the company on hoovers.

Thanks.
I checked hoovers.
I actually read their 10-k before. I am puzzled that Revenue per employee is about 200k for KPMG consulting and 150k for scient and only 80k for emerald 1n 1999.
Their GSA cost is higher than cost of goods sold and almost equal sales. Is it just typical for new comers?
