Here are some insights from our team about what it is like to work at EIS:

  • “I like the diversity of work. It presents a challenge and an opportunity for growth, not only personally but corporately as a team.”

  • “It is so nice to work at a company where I feel comfortable coming into the workplace. It may sound strange, but some places I have worked in in the past didn’t feel that way and I have never forgotten it.”

  • “I like their ‘it’s not 1983’ style of managing people.”

  • “I appreciate how EIS listens and allows for flexibility in your job to accommodate what is happening in your life – that is important to me.”

  • “Appreciation for work done is often voiced. ‘Thanks for your help today’ or ‘cheers for that’ – to me that shows real appreciation of the people working within the business, and that goes for all the teams within the organisation.”

  • “Great people and culture, with interesting and challenging work fronts. I get to travel to wild and exotic locations (Hokitika).”

  • “EIS is like a family to me. I would be lost without the close friendships that I’ve made. The flexibility I have always had with my role is important to me in achieving a work/ family balance – EIS is very understanding and supportive and interested in my family, and I appreciate the support.”

  • “For me, it’s the diverse projects we continually carry out. Seeing a project go from a hole in the ground to a fully functioning plant and having pride in knowing we achieved something great. Also, working with a great team and the fun that is had that comes with working closely.”
