Good place to work for
Lead Training Specialist (Current Employee), Fort Wainwright, AK –
Pros: benefits, training, work schedule
Cons: contract, job security isn't the best
Good pay, good benefits, and they offer online classes. The only down side is that its a contract job so the overall job security is low. If the contract gets renewed its an awesome corporation to work for.

Revolving door
former engineer (Former Employee), San Francisco –
Pros: paid a little bit about average.
Cons: no place to grow professional.
Parsons is the little dog that eats scraps from the real engineering company's tables. Don't expect too much loyalty or professionalism. When the project's done- you're done. Make sure you get stock options- they will try to not give them to you.

In addition to this, it is extremely difficult to move to another project. Once the project is done, you – more...  are out.

You will be better off as a contract employee with double or three time the normal salary. – less

Excellent workplace, if financially unstable
Graduate Research Assistant (Current Employee), New York, NY –
Pros: stimulating environment
Cons: healthcare, job security
Research at Parsons is situated at the intersection of design and the social sciences; nevertheless, the New School as a whole is financially unstable, which makes for an unsettling experience at times.
