“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!”
“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.”
"My SWCA internship provided me with resources and tools I needed to be successful, while also allowing access to experienced mentors that have helped me to advance my GIS career."
"I have loved my career at SWCA for the past 15+ years because I have always had great opportunities here. Opportunity to learn a wide variety of skills, grow professionally, work with the smartest people in the business, tackle resource management issues with innovation and creativity, and also have work-life balance and flexibility. I'm really proud to work at a company that stands behind its core values, and these core values align with my own."
"I joined SWCA over 13 years ago to join a professional company that offers career opportunities. I stayed because of the amazing, passionate, hard-working, talented, and kind people in the company. The culture of ownership is a strong driver of our collaborative and supportive SWCA community. I am excited about the company we are all working together to build for the future and the ever-growing team."
"My internship with SWCA was the catalyst that launched my career in cultural resources management. I was able to work alongside a team of professional archaeologists who took the time to mentor and guide me all while receiving a hands-on learning experience in the field and in the lab."
