What Our Beacon Alumni Say...
"At Beacon, I understood what was important to the firm and its leaders, and thoroughly enjoyed experiencing the culture during that time. After taking a full-time position with Saltmarsh, I can say that the culture has held true, and the firm fundamentals are still as important in our daily work as they were impressed to me years ago."
"I quickly felt at home at Saltmarsh because of the open, friendly environment! Beacon allowed me to open up and form connections with different people at the firm. When I started my internship at Saltmarsh, I already knew many of my coworkers and felt comfortable around them."
