Pros

Working here has been amazing and one of the best choices I have made in my professional career. I have a fantastic manager that has taken the time to review my skills, and encourage me to move toward learning and studying for additional professional licenses, and continued higher education. The working environment has been extremely positive. I find that our office has a wonderful team spirit. I have been here just over 1.5 years and I have found the people here to be warm, friendly and extremely talented.

Cons

GEI is growing and expanding not only in people numbers, but also in core business disciplines. It will be exciting to see where we are in one year, then two and so on. I find growth to have some challenges... but at this time there are no CONS.

Pros

I worked part-time for GEI while finishing up graduate school and recently started full-time. The diverse skill-sets and backgrounds of coworkers allows for great learning on the job. There are many opportunities to get involved in a variety of projects and learn new skills. My supervisor(s) have been very supportive of learning new skills and provide interesting work. Overall, a great company in my opinion.

Cons

The Sacramento Office is growing rapidly. This has brought many positive changes, but growing pains have definitely played out. Overall, nothing negative to say.

We are thrilled that you worked for us as a student and chose to return to us as a full-time professional after graduation. Getting the opportunity to work on a variety of interesting projects and learning our profession is something we strive to offer as a fundamental part of our culture. We enjoy cultivating a work environment where motivated and engaged junior employees get to apply their formal education in a meaningful and creative way in consulting. We have been consistently growing as a company, with Sacramento being one of our fastest growing offices. Our well-established water practice has seen considerable expansion and we are excited to be able to add to our talented team in support of our clients. While we strive to maintain low turnover, we do find that consulting isn’t for everyone. We understand that as students graduate and seek out their first professional job that some thrive in consulting while others may find different ways to apply their technical skills in careers that are a better match for them and that process can contribute to turnover. Thank you for choosing us, a second time, for your career and we hope that you enjoy a long, successful career at GEI!

Pros

Company culture is extremely welcoming, good range of ages and genders, small enough office to make it feel like a close group of people.. I interviewed with multiple companies around the Bay Area and felt most "at home" with GEI, also the salary was equivalent to my other offers. So after lots of research and interviews I decided it was the best fit- and I am very happy with my choice!

Cons

Not opposed but does not encourage working from home

We are dedicated to paying our employees a market-competitive total compensation package and monitor our package closely by keeping an eye on industry benchmarks. We’re happy you chose us too and hope you continue to enjoy working at GEI for years to come!
