As a winner of the "Excellence in Diversity Award," we know that building an inclusive culture based on the diverse strengths of employees from different backgrounds is key to our success.

Paul Decker, Mathematica president and CEO, talks about our unique, rigorous approach.

Mathematica's reputation for quality and objectivity is based in no small part on our high-caliber staff. We hire energetic, talented individuals and provide an environment for them to help steer our work and their careers. Employees at all levels are selected for their superior experience, education, and training. Most senior staff hold doctoral degrees and are nationally recognized in their fields, which include economics, sociology, survey research, public policy analysis, demography, education, and computer technology. Being an independent, employee-owned firm empowers us to define and further our mission; it also enhances our quality, accountability, and financial strength. Our staff aren’t just employees—they are owners working together to help improve public well-being, and each one of them directly contributes to the company’s growth and success.

To have an impact, research results must be communicated to others. We have briefed government officials, business decision makers, and congressional committees on issues that range from preventing teen pregnancies to ensuring the integrity of our nation's retirement pension system. Because we actively disseminate our findings and encourage employees to publish their work in professional journals, our studies figure prominently in almost every major review of social policy literature.
