Pros

Motivated teams who want customers to be successful Redlands is a great place to live with tons to do (don't let the haters convince you otherwise). Getting to work on meaningful projects UC GIS mothership Awesome Guest speakers Good healthcare

Cons

Pay - if you come in at a low salary it is difficult to make fair salary. When promoted, there is often no raise, or you remain well below what an outside hire would be paid. Technical Support has a weird culture where they hire you with the intention of you getting a job elsewhere in the company and then spend 2 years playing mind games, making people feel not good enough to move onto another job or blocking the way. Why not make support a great place to work always as its an incredibly valued part of the company.

We agree - Redlands is a great community with lots to offer! Technical Support is a great place to grow your career at Esri, whether within the division or on another team. We will continue to work on how we can communicate opportunities and processes to support employees in their career development. Thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback.

Pros

- Work-life balance - Beautiful campus

Cons

- The Inland Empire is a horrible place to live and incredibly over priced - Low pay - If you're looking for a company you can grow with, Esri certainly isn't it. The organization seems completely disinterested with growing its own assets and relies almost entirely on hiring from the outside. You'll want to be very comfortable with the position you're originally hired for because you'll more than likely spend the next 20 years in it if you can stick it out that long.
