Pros

Generally good people who are good at their jobs. Most employees, from PMs to Analysts to Developers are good at what they do. Very relaxed working environment, lots of planned fun like parties, trips, lunches etc. Working here allows you to gain experience wit multi-billion dollars companies and foundations as clients. Unlike most agencies, they do not like to hire unless they can sustain the positive as a permanent one. I haven't seen post-project layoffs since I started and don't think there have ever been any. That being said, that strategy can also cause some added work to the people who do work here.

Cons

Work hours are up and down and typically higher than is acknowledged. Management is young and inexperienced, which in some cases is great but mentorship is lacking and career path can feel very undefined.

Pros

Velir has a strong supportive work culture. We are finding our voice in the echo system and committed to delivering exceptional work to Clients. This job is not one you just clock out and not think about, it’s the one you wake ,up excited to tackle the next adventure and see what you can attribute to the team! The support we all have for one another is amazing and the way we all roll our sleeves up together is what I have been looking for in a company for a long time.

Cons

Our calendars definitely have quite a bit of meetings daily but we are working as a team to find ways to minimize these and allocate ways to support one another.
