Purpose & Core Values

Purpose

To serve our clients, our team, & our communities. 

Put People First

Our original motto of “Putting People First” remains our utmost core value. We lead with a commitment to deliver solutions that are people-focused.

Lead with Integrity

We say what we mean, and our words align with our actions. In every project, we are there for the right reasons.

Practice Honest Communication

Our work is grounded in honest and transparent communication both internally and externally. We bring our real world experience each project.

Deliver Transformative & Innovative Solutions

We are an outcomes-focused partner for clients and stakeholders. Our success depends on our positive impact on our communities and clients.

Collaborate at Every Level

Creating comprehensive solutions must be done in collaboration with stakeholders and clients and must involve professionals who have expertise. When our clients hire Franklin Associates, they hire a diverse team of professionals willing to roll up their sleeves until the project goal is achieved.

Team Benefits

Franklin Associates offers a comprehensive range of benefits designed to support employee wellbeing, promote work-life balance, and encourage meaningful community engagement. From flexible scheduling and hybrid work options to robust health and retirement plans, we are committed to creating a supportive and rewarding environment for our team.

Our benefits also reflect our motto of Putting People First, with paid family leave, competitive compensation, and opportunities for employees to give back through volunteer work and local initiatives.

We offer flexible scheduling and hybrid work options. Holidays, paid vacation, and personal leave are available to all full-time, permanent employees.

To support the wellbeing of our employees, we offer a full wellness package featuring healthcare, dental, vision, life insurance, and disability benefits.

Our Simple IRA retirement plan features a matching component to ensure you are on the right track to saving for the future.

We recognize the importance of rewarding our team members for their hard work and dedication. Our commitment to fair compensation ensures that our team feels appreciated and motivated to continue delivering exceptional results.

To further support our full-time permanent team members, we are proud to provide four weeks of paid family leave for mothers, and one week of paternal leave.

Community involvement is a core tenet of Franklin Associates. Team members are encouraged to give back and support community and service-based organizations / initiatives that speak to them. In addition, each year, Franklin hosts “Taste of Mid City,” a fundraising food festival celebrating the Baton Rouge community with all proceeds being donated to support  a local non-profit.
