“My reasons for joining Paciulli, Simmons and Associates were to gain professional development derived from working on diverse projects so that I could work toward both my PE and LS; small company structure with friendly people; comfortable work environment; firm stability and prestige/reputation; location in one of the fastest growing localities offering a variety of work experience; and the empowerment instilled in younger engineers by entrusting them to important aspects of projects as opposed to using them to simply do the mundane tasks.”
