ABOUT THIS COMPANY:


Small but polished
With over 600 employees spread across six offices in the U.S., U.K. and India, Diamond Management & Technology Consultants is not one of the largest players in the world of consulting.  That said, it does operate in a niche market and has an enviable client list, having worked with the likes of Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, American Express, Allstate, Pfizer, Bayer, CIGNA, Kraft, PepsiAmericas, the U.S. Department of Justice, Cadbury Schweppes, Barclays Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland.  The firm has undergone a couple of shifts in identity and focus since its founding in 1994.  Starting out under founder Mel Bergstein as Diamond Technology Partners, the firm also operated as DiamondCluster International before settling on its current identity in 2006, following the sale of one of its units.

PwC Diamond SURVEY SAYS


Corporate Atmosphere
Vault's Verdict:
With a few exceptions, Diamond runs on a virtual firm model, which means employees are typically scattered aboutthe continental U.S.  Despite the geographic constraints this produces, the firm has been able to cultivate a dynamic, cohesive culture—a major factor in consultants’ high satisfaction marks.

Overall Satisfaction
• “Diamond is a young, scrappy, firm with an entrepreneurial, can-do attitude.  We joke that we're ‘blue collar strategy.’  Unlike more established firms, there is no ‘book’ to follow: We are writing the book.  Leaders genuinely care about firm and consultant development, and every day we have myriad personal opportunities to direct the future of the firm.  I like this a lot.” – Denver staffer
• “I am very happy here at Diamond.  We have a great firm, and our positive growth results over the past couple of years during the economic challenges prove that we're doing something right!” – Strategy executive
• “I'm very satisfied with my job.  As a more junior resource, I am being challenged to take on more responsibility, and learning a ton in the process.  The culture at Diamond is unique for a consulting firm, and everyone around you wants to see you improve and grow as a consultant.” – Health care first-year
