Reset Sort By Default EngineerGirl Team , Answered Tuesday, September 3, 2013 at 8:10 AM Hi Zaylie, The answer to that question really depends upon what you mean by "at once." Engineers will often work on several projects, or even different parts of the same project, at the same time, but that doesn't mean that they are always rushed to complete something without devoting their full attention to it. The number of projects assigned to any particular engineer at any time depends greatly upon the industry and the specific company.
