Split Consultancy category into sub-categories.

marmelo opened this issue Β· comments

The Consultancy πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’Ό is growing a lot and I feel that some sub-groups are forming.

I do not know all companies and need you help to both find out the emerging categories and also to assign companies to the best category they fit.

Right now, I am proposing the following sub-categories.
New sub-categories are expected to popup as time goes by.

  • Consultancy πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’Ό Broad πŸ’«
  • Consultancy πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’Ό Specialized 🎯
  • Consultancy πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’Ό Web 🌐 Mobile πŸ“± Design 🎨
  • Consultancy πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’Ό Recruiting πŸ•΅οΈβ€β™‚οΈ

What do you think?

According to the companies descriptions seems to fit. Since this will impact all PRs I would advise for quick merge and fix later.

In more broad discussions I think Consultancy sub categories aren't that great but it's always hard to split them. Not sure what are the characteristics that matter in a consultancy company... Size (head count) ? Yes/No outsourcing? Specialized or broad projects?

I would care more about size and if they specialize on something. That would be like Consultancy πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’ΌπŸ‘©β€πŸ’Ό Specialized 🎯 (two persons, mid-sized)

I believe Armis belongs to Consultancy πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’Ό Specialized 🎯 because their area are:

  • Logistics and Transports
  • Digital Sports

The consultancy is truly too big at the moment, so I fully agree with this splitting.

Regarding the categories themselves, I think for now they are okay, but may have to tuned afterwards!

I have just split Consultancy companies into sub-categories.
Feel free to suggest further moves and new sub-categories.
Thanks!
