The Gideons International Employee Reviews

The Gideons International is a nice place to work as the people are overall friendly and encouraging and the purpose is wonderful. The issue is how strict management can be on certain things and how demanding at times the job can be.

Worth the wait

Receptionist (Current Employee) - Nashville, TN - January 20, 2020

It takes 3 weeks to a month to get hired on... but is so worth the wait. People here are genuine and kind. We work as a team. Need help, Ask and you shall receive.

Believed in the Mission and Loved the people

Technical Support Analyst (Former Employee) - Nashville, TN - January 11, 2020

Fortunately the position I had was ever challenging and had opportunities to learn, but because this was a men's ministry non-profit, women's advancement seemed limited though some did occur. That said, the people were all wonderful and the work environment culture were productive, friendly, and enjoyable. Management was always looking for ways to motivate and inspire, and keep the staff connected. Benefits were great, higher pay, opportunity for flex schedule, or remote work though were not available.

Alot of great people that work here. It's a place where people will pray for you. It's about seeing the lost getting saved. Work well with others. Don't take things to heart.

Good Place to work

Full-Time mid-level Application Developer (Current Employee) - Nashville, TN - May 31, 2019

Christian friendly environment For over 100 years the Gideons have been sharing God's Word freely with a lost world. They have thousands of testimonies of lives that have been changed through their labor and millions have been transformed by the Bibles that they have received.

Camp Vice President (Current Employee) - Carson City, NV 89702 - January 23, 2018

Unpaid volunteer local work.Sharing the Gospel and possibly meeting someone's personal needs.Management = work as you see fit.Workplace culture = open and honest.Hardest part of the job = someone rejects the opportunity to know more about God's love for themselves.

Productive and Fun Workplace

Contract Graphic Designer (Former Employee) - Nashville, TN - May 26, 2015

I was a contracted designer in the communications department, so there was hardly any job security and a slim chance for advancing. The Art Director and Creative Director came from creative backgrounds and are very open to new creative strategies, which makes this a great workplace for creatives. They have a great web designer and excellent copywriters. I learned a lot from the Art Director, as he was inspiring and motivational. The most enjoyable part of the job is that I had great chance to practice the creative trade.
