The Good Planet Company consists of great customers, great products, great ideals and a great team of people to keep everything together! The opportunities to grow the business are endless, but we focus on keeping things simple, offering the best products, services and values to our customers, while offering a stable, enjoyable, challenging workplace. As a result, employment opportunities are limited.
We keep the cover letters, references and CV's of qualified applicants on file for a period of one year from the date of receipt. If an employment opportunity is not suited to exisiting applicants, we will then post the vacant position here on the website, on Craigslist, and in-store.
