Pros

Fisher is a genuinely supportive place to work. The leadership team is transparent and communicates regularly — you’re kept in the loop on company updates, and it’s easy to reach out with questions or ideas. The project work is interesting and diverse, and you’re given a good amount of responsibility early on, which makes the job feel meaningful. There are plenty of opportunities to collaborate across disciplines — engineering, planning, landscape architecture, land development, and more — which makes the work both well-rounded and dynamic. The flexible hybrid schedule is a big plus, and the company does a nice job organizing office activities to keep people connected. One thing I really appreciate is how friendly and efficient they are when it comes to immigration sponsorship — the process is clear, timely, and handled with care, which isn’t something every firm gets right.

Cons

Some internal systems take a little time to get used to, and onboarding for new PMs could be a bit more structured to help with that transition. The company offers a fixed 401(k) contribution, which is helpful, though it doesn’t follow a traditional matching structure. PTO is fairly standard, but there isn’t separate sick leave. There’s also currently no formal parental leave policy, which may be worth reviewing as the company continues to grow.

Pros

Its a small planning team that has ambitious plans to grow over the next few years. The team is really good at communicating expectations and delegating tasks. The people are supportive and patient. Excellent place to grow as a young professional.

Cons

The planning team is fairly new and is still finding its feet in the professional circles. Everyone has to be acutely aware of utilization and budgets. There is some uncertainty about what kind of work you will do as a planner because the group is still exploring different kinds of work.
