Top 10 Reasons to Work at Esri



Contributions

Your ideas can become a successful solution.
Whether you are designing the next software version, suggesting ways to improve a business process, or helping customers implement their GIS, your work is important. You will be encouraged to use your knowledge and creativity to develop new ideas and contribute in a meaningful way.

Innovation

Advance the future of GIS technology.
Help build the tools that are advancing GIS technology. GIS has grown tremendously in the past three decades—both in functionality and the many ways it is used—and you can have an impact on its future. You will always have opportunities to learn and do something new.

Customers

Help our customers make a difference.
From aiding disaster recovery efforts to tracking elephant migration to creating more efficient public transit, Esri users are changing their communities and the world. Our customers are the most important part of our business, and we are committed to helping them succeed as they utilize Esri technology.
"Listening to our users for corporate strategy and product direction became our foundation and is still in place today. This principle has enabled us to develop GIS technology that's truly driven by our customers." —Jack Dangermond, president, Esri.

Technology

Shaping the world around us.
Our innovative software makes a difference in our society and contributes to everyday life. It is used by millions around the world and in every industry. Our software development is focused on emerging technologies such as service-oriented architecture, .NET, and 3D visualization. We are committed to continually improving our products and developing new technology. Every year, Esri reinvests 20 percent of its profits into research and development to continue building the best GIS software available.

Geography Matters

Help others realize the importance of geography.
Geography matters—it connects our many cultures and societies and influences our way of life. A GIS leverages geographic insight. It's a unique medium that enables organizations to more effectively carry out their missions, improve the bottom line, and make a positive impact on society and the world. Work with Esri customers as they make vital contributions toward the better management of our planet and its resources.

People

Team with others passionate about their work.
Whether building the next Esri product, helping a customer solve a problem, or writing for one of our publications, we are committed to doing the best work possible. Working individually or as a team, be passionate about what you do. Have a career where you are supported for going the extra mile, whether it's helping a colleague or a customer.

Founded in 1969 as a small consulting firm, Esri has grown into the world leader in the nearly $2 billion GIS industry. With annual revenues of $794 million, we are privately held and debt free. We carefully manage our projects and expenses to ensure we will continue as a financially strong, reliable company.
