      Pros

      GVEC is a fun, family oriented, fast paced organization. The company challenges me, management motivates me and our teams work so well cross functionally.

      Cons

      There is always room for improvement and GVEC recognizes this. I am grateful to work for a company that is not satisfied with the status quo. So, no real cons, if there were any, chances are there is a plan in place for improvement.

      What wonderful feedback! We work with the intent for all of our employees to feel this way. Thank you for leaving us a review.

                Great benefits and some really great people.

                Cons

                Some groups there is not a lot of movement in unless you know the right people.

                  Cons

                  Every employer has some cons. Not too much to complain about GVEC.

                  That is great to hear, thank you for your feedback.

                    Safe and comfortable working conditions, still has that family atmosphere, great benefits and strives for employees to have that work/life balance. The whole team comes together whenever we have an employee that needs help.

                    Cons

                    No complaints, just my thoughts below.

                    Thank you for the review and the advice. We will ensure that our Operations team see this and will take it into consideration.

                      Pros

                      Reasons why I love working at GVEC: Competitive pay Vacation (PTO) and Emergency (sick) time are two separate categories. Employees have a bond like family and we know how to weather the storm together.

                      Cons

                      No holidays around Easter. Good Friday is a regular business day of operation.

                      Thank you for your review and feedback. Our philosophy is to be open when our members and customers would want to do business with us. Though, we are currently reviewing our holiday schedule and will consider your comments. We really appreciate them!

                        Pros

                        Strong foundation with mission, vision and values that are rooted within their employees. GVEC's environment is like no other, it's a genuine place to work where people from different demographics become family. The pay & full benefits package is just the cherry on top.

                        Cons

                        Every company has cons however, the leadership team does a great job at putting out survey's and hearing their employees feedback.

                        That is great to hear! Thank you for the review, we really appreciate it!

                      Hello guys, I applied as Chemical engineer in a big company and I did with them all the interview steps (last one on 05/09/23), at the time of the interview there was no job opening and I got the interview through another division. Last week I received an email saying that they will let me know their final decision by the end of this week. Today I have received an email (with the job description attached) scheduling a call in few days for sharing the decision. Do they want to reject me on call?
