Pyramid Consulting

What Pyramid Consulting does

Pyramid Consulting, founded in 1996 in Atlanta, is a privately held, founder-owned workforce and technology solutions provider operating across 5 continents and 25+ countries with 9 US regional offices and 22 delivery centers spanning the US, Canada, Mexico, the UK, Ireland, India, and the Philippines. The company is organized into three interconnected sub-brands: Pyramid Talent (IT, engineering, and professional staffing under staff augmentation, contract-to-hire, direct hire, and Teams-as-a-Service models), Celsior (technology services covering data and AI, digital solutions, automation and platforms, with partnerships across ServiceNow, Dynatrace, AWS, Microsoft, Google Cloud, Salesforce, Boomi, and Jack Henry), and GenSpark (training and upskilling including AI leadership and developer programs). A proprietary skills-first talent platform, Hoonr, underpins the Teams-as-a-Service offering, and the company holds SIA 'Largest US Staffing Firm' recognition for 9 years and 'Largest IT Staffing Firm' for 13 years.

Pyramid generates revenue primarily through professional services and managed services contracts with Fortune 500 clients, including top 3 US banks, top 3 US airlines, top 3 US pharmaceutical companies, 4 of the top 5 P&C insurers, and several of the largest US tech and telecom firms. Engagement models include time-and-materials staffing, fixed-price TaaS deployments, and outcome-based managed services, with approximately 35%+ of revenue derived from Global Competency Center operations across 14+ active enterprise clients. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales across five US regions with channel partnerships through hyperscalers, MSPs (Randstad, Allegis, Kelly, Pontoon, Guidant Global), and technology platform vendors. The company reported over $500M in annual revenue in 2022 and has continued to expand through new geographies (Mexico nearshore COE established 2022), the ProGrad acquisition (2024), and the Hoonr platform launch (2024).
