Pros
The review is a celebration of my first anniversary with Parsons Corporation. It has been a year and it has been a happening year. Parsons is an employee owned company and its success depends on the employees too. Parsons being largely a engineering and procurement company, its assets are the employees. Hence, employees are valued a lot. In the past one year as an Associate Mechanical Engineer, I have been exposed to engineering as wells as program management areas of the project. I have had the opportunity to travel a lot. It pays to travel a lot with Parsons, as it gave me the opportunity to work with tons of different people and tons of different tasks and projects. One thing, that I think is important to mention here is that everyone is Parsons is talented, hard working and helpful. Everybody gets along with everyone and supports a new employee like me. It has been an experience that I will not forget.
Cons
The only Con is the Parsons being a client oriented company, you have to be 100% billable all the time. For a starter, it might be an issue but once you get to know a few people in the company, it is easy to find work and billable hours, if you a short of any.
