Moreover, according to the Great Place to Work Trust Index Employee Survey in 2023, 84% of the ECA Team believe it’s a Great Place to Work.

Our 4 core values are more than just words, they’re a way of life. Review our core values and see if they speak to you. They spell out FACE making it easier to remember!

Focus: We are not about ticking boxes but rather about making lasting impact.

Aspiration: We push ourselves to dream bigger and do what has never been done before.

Creativity: We use ingenuity to spark unique ideas, connect with people and inspire new behaviors.

Empathy: We take time to understand the people of our nation as well as our team.

Our award-winning offices are designed for focused work but also encourage collaboration.

Below is what we value most as an organization and if you do too, you’re a perfect match for ECA:

  • We respect each other’s opinions, experiences and differences
  • Our meetings are active, engaging and encourage interaction
  • We offer an incredible amount of autonomy and trust. We leave it to you to figure out how to balance your workload, deliver quality on time and remain productive
  • We snack healthy as a team, encourage chair-based yoga and mental breaks
  • We have banned work-related communications during non-working hours and on weekends, unless it is urgent, and our Fridays are meeting-free days
  • We try to strike a balance between the interests and growth of the individual and the organization’s needs
  • We encourage our teams to make use of their leave days – because we know that taking a break to experience new things can spark the imagination
  • We encourage the spirit of “One Team” through rituals such as Discovery Days and quarterly team gatherings
  • We’re all about open workspaces that encourage focused work, but we also have quiet spaces for reflection and collaborative spaces for ideation
