At Chastain, I value the opportunity to try out different types of projects.  It has helped me to become a more well-rounded engineer and discover the type of project that I enjoy the most.  I also value the openness of management in the company.  It is okay if we don't have all the answers and we can find the solution together as a group.  Chastain also provide flexibility in work schedule and accommodates our family needs.

 Working at Chastain has been very rewarding, challenging and flat out fun.  They offer a very flexible working environment (half day Fridays) as well as being family-friendly and understanding when things do come up.  The projects are very diverse and they are always open to employees who want to spread their wings and wear many hats on a project.  My co-workers are very genuine and are always available to lend a helping hand on project related issues.

For me, the most important thing has been their willingness to be flexible with not only my hours, but the location where I do my work.  I was provided with all the necessary equipment to work from home during the pandemic, which allowed me to be there for my kids while homeschooling.  Overall, Chastain is a great company.  We are consistently being offered opportunities to be our best selves.

I like working at Chastain because of the diversity of the projects and parts of projects I get to work on. As a young engineer, it’s been very helpful to me to see so many different aspects of a project and how they all work together. In the office, I’ve worked on water and sewer projects, local roads, bridge replacements, hydraulic modeling, MFT programs, and countless others. Out of the office, I’ve done surveying and construction observation which have helped me see how the plans get from the paper to the ground. Chastain has showed me how much more there is to civil engineering outside of what they teach you in school.

Find Your Water Footprint and Learn How To Save Water.

How does your water use stack up?

Many people take for granted the large quantities of both direct and virtual water they use daily, which can greatly affect water resources locally and in other places near or far where goods and services are produced.  Individuals who better understand their water use know that even small changes can have a big impact on personal water footprints.  This is especially true for the food people eat, which often makes up the biggest part of their water footprint.  A deeper understanding of water footprints can help make people better stewards of our shared water resources.​
