We are 100% Employee-Owned

The company is owned by the Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP) and common stock shareholders. Annually, ESOP shares are distributed to employees at no cost to you. This means that we’re all company owners, and the longer you stay with Mark Thomas, the more your shares will grow. There are also opportunities for exceptional team members, at all levels, to buy common shares.

We Believe in Flexible Work

Flexible hours and remote work provide key benefits for our team members, and we are committed to maintaining a culture that allows our team members to do their best work, regardless of location. Our flexible work policy includes:

  • Hybrid schedules, where the majority of our team members can work remotely most of the time
  • Core hours from 10 am-3 pm, providing flexibility for schedule preferences and caregiving needs
  • 9/80 schedules, where you have every other Friday off

We are Right Sized

As a mid-sized firm, we provide opportunities and stability that smaller firms cannot. We balance workload companywide to provide opportunities to work on unique projects and access the right expertise, regardless of location. However, unlike larger firms, we are small and nimble enough to easily implement companywide changes if something isn’t working.

We Have Accessible Leaders

Mark Thomas’s Principals, Associate Principals, and Associates are all active project and department managers. This means that you will interact with many of the company’s leaders through everyday work – receiving invaluable experience, guidance, and mentoring.

We Offer Multiple Career Paths

Most consulting firms only offer one career path – starting at an entry level engineer, surveyor, or landscape architect and leading up to a seller-doer project manager and beyond, where you are responsible for winning work. In addition to the traditional seller-doer path, we also offer a technical career path. On this path, your focus remains on technical work. These two paths provide growth and leadership opportunities for all personality types, styles, and interests.
