Parsons Work Values

Daily Duties at Parsons :

The District has a set of Technical Design Guidelines which we furnished the architects at the beginning of each design phase. I have worked with the program manager, and quality control manager editing these guidelines to include changes by The District’s addendums, appendices, and directives. I have also been involved in plan review for each bid package, reviewing the civil and structural drawings, and enforcing the above design guidelines on all design and bid documents. For the last six months I have also worked with the Director of Projects, and District PM’s to solicit and compile bids on Job Order Contracts (small jobs), which are separated from the other bid packages.

What they like about Parsons :

The social vibrance of a hiring firm is very important to you. Your ability to make and maintain friendships there is a critical part of your decision. You would likely be dissatisfied with a workplace that is quiet, cold, or otherwise not particularly social. When you investigate a new hiring company, ask recruiters, managers, and potential co-workers about the social life and opportunities there. This is especially important when you are relocating; moving dramatically alters your social sphere both inside and outside the workplace.
