Portland, OR – Parametrix has ranked the No. 11 best large company to work for in Oregon by Oregon Business. This is up six spots from 2025, when the firm ranked No. 17. Large companies are those that have 100 or more employees in Oregon.
The ranking is based on employee survey responses, which include questions about work environment, management and communications, decision-making and trust, career development and learning, and benefits and compensation.
“It’s remarkable how each individual at every level has so many opportunities to make a major difference,” one employee wrote in the survey. “So much of our client satisfaction is driven by the passion and curiosity of individual employee-owners.”
Parametrix has Oregon offices in Portland, Bend, Eugene, and Ashland, with over 160 employee-owners providing services in transportation, environmental science, climate change and resilience, water, community building, and land surveying. Parametrix first opened an office in Portland in 1989, expanding to Bend in 2015, Eugene in 2023, and Ashland in 2025.
As a 100% employee-owned firm, all employee-owners participate in an Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The firm emphasizes work-life balance, offers growth opportunities, and gives employee-owners the chance to work on award-winning projects in their communities.
“It’s an honor to consistently be ranked among the best companies to work for in Oregon. We owe our success to our employee-ownership model and the strong relationships we have built with our clients in Oregon over the last 50+ years,” said Parametrix Oregon/Idaho Senior Vice President, Richard Roché.
