Flexible work environments Good People Good work place Cons Too much work presser and work load Not clear process Thank You for your feedback. Many of our Employees experience working at REI as satisfying, challenging and career-advancing. To a large degree, it appears you do as well. They appreciate the culture of openness and transparency. We provide paid technical training, mobility among projects within the company, and leadership and communication development programs for employees to grow as professionals. We’re honored to work with clients who are changing the world, and sometimes challenges can arise when there is a lot going on and many facets at play. It’s not always easy to address, and our Managers continually strive to find solutions to balance project needs, client relationships, and employee considerations. We continually work to grow and enhance our working culture by asking employees what they want or need, by sending satisfaction surveys, conducting employee check-ins, and conducting skip 1on1 conversations (an employee’s boss’s boss connects with them) to ensure their voices are heard. Additionally we have an anonymous “Text the Execs” program in which employees can share or alert us of situations that may need addressing in a unattributable way. Many also connect directly (and confidentially) with our on-site Professional and Personal Development Coach to more fully share and understand situations as well as determine the best way to approach the issue. These and other factors ensure Employees feel an atmosphere of trust, transparency, and growth. Employees have voted REI Systems a “Washington Post Top Places to Work” five times. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Pros

Ceo is good. Good benefits. 401k, medical plan is good. Decent pto policy. Wfh and remote work policies are good You get to work on mission critical systems and can see impact.

Cons

There is no respect of your personal time. Some dev/delivery Managers have no engineering background except of a degree and they cannot offer solutions. Hence, the dependency on team is so high for every little thing. Folks higher up in the chain engage in activities that violate code of conduct and ethics. Work spouse are common place here. Some people are home grown and in leadership positions and do not know how to handle crisis, and large programs. Some leaders get to move around easily when they cannot handle work complexity, and pressure and due to this genuine folks have to suffer (in short rules bend behind scenes) (open bias). Leadership will stand for their favorites [bias] and save them even after failing to deliver and innumerable customer escalations. Few architects shout and believe they know it all.
