Buro Happold

Typical day began at 8.30, (30 minutes before most everyone else) so that I may address emails from home office in Bath, UK. and other overnight mail. After that, it's on with the regular tasks of the day till closing time
The hardest part of the job was trying to complete every request in a timely manner and because of this experience, I developed exceptional time management skills.
The most enjoyable part of the job was not being shut behind closed doors (except when processing payroll).

Burro Happold is a very large firm with offices all over the globe therefore there are times where the firm is put before the employees. The benifit of working at burro happold was that it was a Multi-National firm therefore there was a chane to work on projects outside of the nited states. Overall the wok experience at Burro Happolld as good however there were some things that could be changed to benifit all of the employees,

A typical day consisted of answering phones, booking conference rooms, ordering lunches, receiving packages, distributed mail and assisted different departments. Buro Happold was the job that laid the foundation for my knowledge and experience in Engineering. It also helped me utilize my strong administrative skills. The hardest part of the job was having to coordinate with offices all over the world. The most enjoyable part of the job was the people I worked with.

the firm goes through reorganization every year. it is a bit chaotic. there is a lack of  higher experience management for the type of projects they have. the culture is conducive to work extended hours of 70 hours/week with unrealistic deadline. it ultimately leads to projects errors and deficiencies.

I loved working at Buro Happold. Had I not relocated I would have stayed. Management was going through an overhaul when I left but upper-management cared and that was visible. The culture is fantastic, and they like to invest in their employees. My only critique is that the pay was about $10-20K too low for level of work required at an administrative level.

Great Contract. Wonderful friendly, helpful team staff. Thanks for the opportunity. Would love to return and work with the team again. Project managers were very helpful and assisted me with getting acquainted with the tools and new environment.

One of the greatest Structural Engineering firms with Great Mechanical Engineering Designs.  I took a risk in my career and resigned to help out a start up company.  I have no regrets.  I did manage to be recognized to be trained as a Job Leader to better take advantage of my experience and experience and hopefully could have moved into management.  A great place to work in the great historical 100 Broadway

At Buro happold i had the opportunity to work on diverse projects. You learn something new every day. Job security is questionable. You also get to work on some international projects. Work environment is relaxing, Management knowledgeable to goal oriented.

Buro Happold benefits from many global resources. It is on a great trajectory in the United States, with an entrepreneurial, but people guided approach. The firm works on very interesting projects and is very transparent about its ESG goals. 

Good place to get a great experience because you will be expose to large projects.As a co-op, I had the chance to work on several large projects such as Partners Healthcare office in Somervile Mass, Micrisoft in Burlington Mass and many more.
