They do. I would be surprised if they don't operate in compartmentalized teams. I work with a company that has clients in competing markets.

There are maybe 10 companies active in a given region/content that have the fame to pull off this high level of consulting (I am not claiming they are the only capable ones, or even that they are capable, just saying that the shortlist is rather ... short) Its known that they work for the competitors. You just want to handle the exposure and limit the risk of your super realistic super important strategy leaking 3 months before you make it public.
