'a mostly-positive general-public reputation'

Citation needed. Ideally pointing out -informed- general public reputation; after all, we had a person elected president due in large part to perceptions from the every man of his business acumen despite running -casinos- into the ground.

If you step out of the tech bubble, you will see that these mega consulting firms are considered prestigious places to work especially in India and other developing world.

Prestigious to work for != company does good work.

I don't think informed reputation is relevant when we're talking about procurement from enterprises or government outside of more "technology native" companies.

If you're hiring a company to do something you don't know how to do, you might not even know where to find informed opinions.

If I was going to hire a plumber I'm sure there are some places that all the good plumbers know are scam artists, but I have no idea who the good plumbers are.

AAA is an example company like that.
