Reinventing Geospatial (RGi)

Employees seem to be the top priority at RGi; there's no uncomfortable hierarchy or unnecessary restriction, and the employees are given every amenity.

The company is small enough that virtually everyone knows each other well, and office politics and miscommunication really aren't an issue. Lack of these sorts of distractions lets productivity soar, and the freedom to focus on creative work makes for a very satisfying work experience.

One can arrive at and leave work at just about any reasonable time, sit (or stand) in an open cubicle, ask questions or hold impromptu meetings at any time, and be among friends all day. It's great.

On-the-job learning is easy too; starting with only basic knowledge, I learned most of what I know about JavaScript and Python and web/script development in general just from working here over the last few years. It's generally quiet, except for maybe some music playing on the Echo, so focusing is pretty easy. (Every now and then, a nearby meeting or conversation can be a little distracting, and the open cubicle design doesn't help with that, but it's hardly even an issue worth mentioning.)

The management is always helpful and never obstructive. The coworkers are usually friendly and seldom distracting. The free breakfasts on Friday are extravagant and high-calorie. The coffee and tea are plentiful and varied. The attire is uniformly casual (jeans are almost universal). The chairs are amazingly comfortable.

There really seems to be no downside to working here.

I have learned a lot from my fellow co-workers and had fun doing so.  We have a great culture here at RGi where everyone is supportive of each other which I value greatly.  I have worked along side many knowledgeable Technical leads and other Software engineers and they have been gracious and helpful mentors throughout my career here.  It is really makes work enjoyable when everyone here at RGi who are truly passionate about their work.  

I also enjoy that many of my co-workers are also some of my closest friends outside of work too.  Many people at RGi spend time playing basketball, softball, D&D, MTG, Soccer, and other activities outside of business hours. RGi also hosts a series of get togethers to help encourage the comradery as well, such as picnics, tubing trips, company wide trips, happy hours and more. On Fridays the company does buy everyone breakfast (sometimes it's Chic-Fil-A, Duck Donuts, Panera, Anita's).


What I do also value at RGi is the flexibility.  I am given the opportunity to make up hours for a dentist or doctors appointment without having to use my Paid Time Off. The managers are willing to work with your schedule to help in those situations (including staying home for a delivery).

Really the best thing about RGi is the culture and the people who work here.  The fun and relaxed environment makes it a great place to work.

It's a government focused contractor, but is currently dipping their hands in the commercial arena. The company has doubled yearly and continues to grow rapidly. Many different technologies are utilized on different projects.
Work consists mostly of development, but some contracts include integration. It's a very open environment, with standing desk and open cubicles. Employees typically eat lunch together in the conference room or go outside for lunch. Helps to create a family feel working at RGi. No matter what you work on it's enjoyable because of your co-workers.
For a small company there is a lot of room to grow in a person's career path and there is a good focus on individual interests.
The CEO purchases different electronics based on employees's interests in order for them to learn about it. Some examples: Oculus Rift, Google Glasses, Tablets, Amazon Echo...etc.
Not only does the company feed your learning, but they also feed health. RGi provides Jersey's for biking and typically on Fridays lots of people go biking. Building also has a gym which all employees are given access.
Overall it's been one of my best work experiences since I started working.

I've been working at the company for several years working on a variety of projects. Coming from a larger government contractor the culture at RGi was a huge step up. As a small business everybody knows each other and work together to be successful, meet deadlines, and improve the quality of software deliveries. One of the best parts of working at RGi is its employees. Everyone is friendly, easy to work with, and quick to help. Employees at the company organize lots of different events throughout the year including happy hours, a softball team, and board game nights.

Management does a good job respecting its employees and their time. Contract gaps are ineviteble in the government contracting industry and RGi management does a great job finding coverage for people whereas large organizations are quick to layoff. Even though employees are salaried, hours above 40/week are compensated by default rather than requiring extra approvals and folks that work in the SCIF are given a SCIF bonus.

The company trip and free food isn't bad either.

I enjoy working at Reinventing Geospatial. Its a nice small family business that is growing with lots of perks.  Free Breakfast on Fridays, Company paid destination holiday trip with your spouse/significant other , social outings and dinners, get togethers at breweries/wineries,  paint and sips, paid benefits, and more.  The work is federal contracting in the geospatial space supporting the US Army as a C3I leader and innovator  as a geospatial expert in our Nation's Security. Since its a small but growing company, I get a lot of opportunity to present ideas and develop creative engineering solutions.The workplace culture is unique as its a mix of family and friends, many have also become friends outside of the workplace and genuinely like and support each other.  I enjoy the people I work with as they are very hard working, fun, smart people.

The work is mostly helping the US government create and build better geospatial systems.  While the theme is geospatial, the work is first and foremost engineering.  Work ranges from creating web tools to developing enterprise server solutions. The engineers use a variety of languages but the most common are Java, JS, and Python.  Being a smaller company, there is a lot of room to explore new technologies or development workflows.  Individual interests are really noticeable here. Often people are getting together to do races or play Magic.  Working with the government has its challenges.  While the customers are great there is the usual level of checks and balances which often adds some overhead.  However, knowing your work will be used by service members is extremely rewarding.

RGi is a small close knit company, all of the employees are friendly and helpful people who are always willing to do anything they can to help, both inside and outside of work. For a junior engineer this environment is ideal for learning from people with a wealth of experience who are willing to teach and mentor. 

The breadth of projects is also a great benefit, it allows for someone to get a wide rage of experiences in a short amount of time. 

The work culture is very relaxed and comfortable, with a casual dress code, bean bags chairs and areas to relax in. Most of the employees meet daily for lunch which fosters friendships among the employees.

Overall a great place to work, and great people to work with.

RGi has very interesting projects that uses many modern languages, frameworks, and development practices where employees have the opportunity to constantly learn and grow their skills in order to stay up-to-date with the latest technology. As a developer, this is very motivating because you always feel like you're working on something innovative and relevant.

RGi company that cares about its employees by providing a fantastic work-like balance, a great benefits package, and lots of fun employee engagement such as happy hours, volunteering, bicycling, and other activities to strengthen relationships in the workplace and making it RGi enjoyable place to work.

Friendly group of people who genuinely enjoy what they do which shows in their quality of work.  Great care is taken to maintain a give-and-take relationship with employees that feels more egalitarian that any other place I have worked for.

Employees can choose their level of company engagement.  Social activities and participation is encouraged for everyone.  Opportunities to learn new skills are constantly available.

If you are looking for a great place to start or continue your career while working with people you could easily be friends with, this is the place.

My experience has been great. The compensation and benefits are top notch. It is an great place to come to work every day with a fun, creative and welcoming environment. Excellent culture, everyone knows everyone and is always willing to help out wherever they can. There is always something going on after hours, i.e. happy hour, soccer, and volunteering. Plus you are given the opportunity and the tools needed to give your best and there is always an opportunity to learn something new.  Overall it is a fantastic place to work.
