What don't you like about working at Parsons?

"There is no company loyalty to the employees which they primarily hire on a per project basis. The company makes little effort to place current or former employees in other projects when their current project assignment ends. There is a huge disconnect between the employees out in the field on assignment and the corporate headquarters or local offices. You do the work, they overcharge the client and reap the profits and then discard you with no severance when your position ends - why should they? They can hire a new employee for less. Parsons has also been involved in several shady projects in Iraq, just as has Halliburton."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Provide and nurture a relationship between their employees and the company. The company needs to show more loyalty to their employees and some concern for their future development and potential rather than perpetuating a revolving door mentality."
