Why I work at Gibbs
I really like that Gibbs is very family-oriented – it feels like a family. The people I work with are kind, friendly, and supportive. There is an open-door policy and I feel comfortable talking about anything. As the receptionist, I’m most people’s first impression of the company, and I’m proud to represent Gibbs Construction.

Our CEO Lauren R Gibbs had the honor of participating in the panel discussion at yesterday’s excellent ABC Bayou Chapter #WomenInConstruction brunch at Tableau. Under the expert direction of moderator Kelly Theard of Deutsch Kerrigan LLP and with her co-panelists Anne Teague Landis of Landis Construction Co., LLC, Krissy Lirette of Performance Contractors, Inc., and Lauren Champagne of EXCEL Group, Lauren discussed the challenges and rewards of managing company culture, attracting and retaining the best staff, family business transitions and being a woman in this male-dominated industry. It was a great sold-out event with a lively crowd. Lauren is a current member of the board of directors of the ABC Bayou Chapter.
