A consultancy whose filing states 8,400 employees, 83% full-time, and nothing by kind of work, so consulting leads by description with digital services and communications beside it.
The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.
What follows from the reading
Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 25% now, 52% at the end of 2027, 66% at the end of 2028, 71% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 71% desk work, 21% people work and 8% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 29% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 55% becomes checking a model's work and 10% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.
Headcount
8,400 employees as of December 31, 2025 (stated). Not stated: the filing counts no employees by country; the data service's 92% United States is revenue.
The filing: “As of December 31, 2025, we employed approximately 8,400 employees, 83% of whom were employed full-time.”
The workforce as industry patterns
| Pattern | Share | Reason, from the filing |
|---|---|---|
| Management, Scientific, and Technical Consulting Services | 50% | By description (c): the filing describes program implementation, policy, health, education and energy consulting for government and commercial clients as the core of its work, with no count by kind of work, so half is read at management and technical consulting, as Booz Allen's was. |
| Computer Systems Design and Related Services | 40% | By description (c): the digital services that modernize government operations with analytics, AI, cloud platforms and low-code tools are computer systems design, with no count stated. |
| Advertising, Public Relations, and Related Services | 10% | By description (c): the strategic communications and marketing services the filing names are advertising and public relations work, with no count stated, so a tenth is read there. |
What the filing says about the workforce: Approximately 8,400 full-time and part-time employees as of December 31, 2025 (9,300 a year earlier), 83% full-time; overall turnover 12.9% in 2025.
