SEE WHAT OUR EMPLOYEES ARE SAYING

“We all play a vital role in SWCA’s success. The ESOP is one way the company encourages the tangible pride all employees take in their work.”

- Jana Sterling, Vice President

"Working with the leadership team, all of our discussions come back to whether this shows how much we care for our staff. I am deeply impressed by how our culture of caring is sincere and is truly the driving force and energy behind how our company operates."

-Kallin Snow, Senior Office Director

"I joined SWCA in 2019 and it has been so refreshing to be a part of a company that can only be described as bigger than that. It’s a community where we encounter our people living our values whether it’s during an employee going through something in their personal life, something challenging at work, or simply participating in a Gives Back event. We are a community and it’s felt. "

-Marty Salas, Senior Accounts Payable Supervisor

"SWCA has a very strong sense of community. I am happy to be a part of the SWCA family and surround myself with some of the brightest scientists in the industry.”

-Nick Wojcik, Principal Restoration Ecologist

"SWCA is great! They provided me with tuition assistance when I received my GIS certification several years ago and then again when I decided to get my MBA in 2020. SWCA helped make both a reality for me!"

-Christian Hartnett, Senior Practices Technology Director

“SWCA’s insurance has made a huge impact on my family life. I was paying $6,000 per year for my diabetic medication prior to joining SWCA, but that cost has gone down to $100 a year under SWCA’s insurance plan. For the first time in 7 years, I can insure my entire family. This company has been a breath of fresh air.”

-Nuria Holmes, Principal Planning Team Lead
