The Employee Experience
Juneau, Alaska’s remote capital, reachable only by air or water is a thriving city offering a great blend of city amenities and small-town hospitality. Nearly 32,000 people call Juneau home, many of them working in government, tourism, mining, and fishing. Juneau employees have the perks of many conveniences such as big-box stores, a movie theatre, bowling alley, and a variety of watering holes.
Skagway, with a population of just around 1,000, is located at the northernmost point of the Inside Passage in Southeast Alaska. With its streets lined with wooden boardwalks and historically restored buildings, Skagway looks much as it did 100 years ago. Skagway has one library, one financial institution, 2 grocery stores, 3 museums, and 6 saloons. In Skagway, team members with passports can enjoy trips to Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory. Just 2 hours away, it is the closest city.
Ketchikan is known as Alaska’s “first city” due to its location at the southern tip of the Inside Passage. Rain or shine, the beauty of Ketchikan’s lush, green, temperate rainforest setting is immediately apparent. Good fishing and a vibrant artist community, Ketchikan has something for everyone.
Sitka is the perfect location for someone looking to have a lighter workload and lots of time to enjoy their surroundings. A historic gem, Sitka and it’s beautiful surroundings make it ideal for the avid outdoor enthusiast.
