REI: Not Just Another Government Contractor

REI isn’t your average workplace. We’re a tight-knit community of people we call the REI family. Even after the workday is done, REI employees enjoy participating in employee-run extracurricular activities like the Happy Feet Program and our annual Hackathon, which allows teams to compete over a weekend to produce a working solution to a real-world problem.

Commitment To Continued Education

SOAR

SOAR is an in-house, eight-month training program with the goal of teaching self-awareness to our leadership team and future leaders. As humans, we tend to think that if the results we get are not the results we want, it is a direct result of the actions we are taking. SOAR encourages personal transformation and builds self-awareness by asking students to identify their own needs and demonstrating how these develop into leadership skills.

Full-Time Coach
REI is proud to offer our employees access to our full-time, on-site Personal and Professional Development Coach, who works with employees, teams, and company leadership to help individuals push past any internal – or external – blockers that they may have to being happier, more successful people. Coaching is available not just to executives or high performers, but to all employees at REI.
Personal Wellness and Development

We offer 40 hours of paid professional development each year, but we’re also committed to our employees’ personal physical and mental health. In addition to our extracurricular Happy Feet Program, REI offers frequent seminars about physical activity, nutrition, stress management, and financial best practices.

Having Fun Together

From our Happy Feet program and annual sports tournaments to Bagel Friday and holiday celebrations, there’s always something to look forward to at REI.

REI Cares

REI employees care deeply for each other, their communities, and the world. REI Cares is an employee-driven initiative that was formed to support employees in need as well as charitable and educational organizations. Employees who participate in REI Cares have organized food drives, clothing drives, and fundraisers to help those in need – both members of our direct REI Family and the global community.
