Pros

JM Goldson is a small firm, which means that you're very close to and involved with the work you're doing. Unlike a larger planning consultancy, there is opportunity for involvement with multiple projects on several levels, making the work and daily life very dynamic. The community engagement opportunities are what drew me to JM Goldson - Jenn does a very good job with community engagement and you can tell the firm really cares about that aspect of planning and puts a lot into it. The small staff makes for a very supportive and collaborative environment.

Cons

There is often a lot going on at any given time - must be ready to multitask.

Pros

Have been working at JM Goldson for 6 months while finishing my masters in urban planning. It's a great team and the projects are varied and interesting, ranging from housing production plans to master plans and community preservation. Great to work on projects that address the widespread housing affordability crisis. I have enjoyed working with a variety of towns and cities of various sizes and Jenn and the team are enthusiastic and very easy to work with. It has been a particularly great learning experience to compliment my degree program and Jenn has been very positive and helpful in balancing my responsibilities and opportunities to learn.

Cons

Juggling a variety of projects can be stressful at times

Pros

There is a long list of things I absolutely love about working at JM Goldson but I'll just list a few: Employee Empowerment Room to grow into your role Social Events Open communication / Freedom to have a voice Promotes great work - life balance Always provides clear direction Inspiring and motivates the team Even though Jenn is always busy, she is always willing to jump in when her team needs her assistance. That is the characteristic of a great leader. Love the comrade and it just feels like home.

Cons

Honestly, this is a great working environment. Since 2019 until this point, I haven't seen anything concerning that would make me not want to work here. With a leader / employer who is always seeking to improve, open to suggestions and ready to listen, that will always be a recipe for success.
