Pros

Velir routinely takes on big, complex web projects, and is incredibly thoughtful in fleshing out functional requirements, and does very mature development work. Awesome group of people there — both leadership and staff — it's not easy to get hired at Velir, but that's a good thing. They tend to only hire really smart people, and it's good to be surrounded by others that you can learn from. The amount I learned from the time I started was immense — not sure I've ever grown professionally as much as when I was at Velir.

Cons

Work / life balance can at times be tough, but this is typical for web agencies — management, though, likes to do cool stuff for employees who end up having to work overtime (and the CEO is a Cirque du Soleil nut, and those outings are a blast). Largely a .NET shop — not a con for everyone, but not my cup of tea.

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.
