CULTURE & BENEFITS
Work should be more than just a job.
We believe it should be a place where every employee feels valued, inspired, and empowered to achieve their best.
Our company culture is built on collaboration, innovation, and mutual respect.
Team Bonding
We believe a strong team is built on meaningful connections and shared experiences. We regularly organize team events and outings; from office celebrations to casual get-togethers, attending sporting events, and hosting holiday parties, we ensure there are plenty of opportunities for all members of our team to connect with colleagues outside of work.

Justice, Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion
At Great Ecology, we know working toward access, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion is multifaceted and that meaningful change requires action.
We strive to create a workplace where people feel their humanity is recognized, welcomed, and appreciated. At Great Ecology, this means dedicating resources to maintain and improve upon access, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion in our workplace and in our interactions with others. We know that honoring people’s diverse experiences, views, and identities helps foster trust which can lead to innovation, successful collaboration, and greater resilience both within the workplace and within communities.
But our work doesn’t end there.
As an ecological consulting and landscape design firm, we are engaged with rehabilitating ecosystems. For us, this means working to acknowledge and understand the ways cultural, economic, and political systems alter the natural world. We create strategies to restore biodiversity and improve the ecological function of landscapes through our technical knowledge about how people have impacted, and been impacted by, ecosystems. As part of our work, we seek to create opportunities for all people to: foster a sense of belonging, meaningfully interact with the world around them, and strengthen connection to place.
