Here is how a few of our recent interns recall their experiences working for Thornton Tomasetti:
Equity, diversity and inclusion are more than the things we do; they are fundamental to who we are as a firm. We are committed to an inclusive mindset that embraces our employees’ full potential and creates opportunities for growth.
President Wayne Stocks and Senior Principal Peggy Phillips restructured our ED&I committee to focus on grassroots employee network groups (ENGs) composed of employees who are linked by social factors such as gender, culture, sexual orientation or a common interest or goal within our firm. They are bottom-up, formed and led by employees who recognize the needs of an underrepresented group. Their leaders are empowered to develop strategic plans and programs that are consistent with the firm’s purpose and values, and that cultivate a welcoming and rewarding environment for all our employees.
The ED&I committee consists of two executive advocates, an ED&I Officer and the leaders of our current ENGs:
- Women@TT, our women’s employee network group, strives to achieve gender equity at Thornton Tomasetti by promoting awareness, providing support and driving culture.
- Mosaic, our multicultural employee network group, raises the visibility of underrepresented groups within the AEC industry, aids recruitment and retention of staff of all backgrounds, promotes cultural awareness, fosters and broadens professional networks, and provides opportunities for advancement.
- Spectrum, our LGBTQIA+ employee network group, promotes an inclusive workplace community and advocates for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex and asexual (LGBTQIA+) employees.
If you prefer out-of-the-box methods over by-the-book practices. If you favor flexibility instead of a rigid routine. If you enjoy getting outside your comfort zone more than staying in your lane. You’ve come to the right place.
