Why Work for VES?

We Offer

Work-from-home with flexible schedule

We prioritize employee happiness and career growth

We understand the negative impact of profit-over-people cultures.

We foster a team-oriented environment with shared goals.

But just like service to our clients, we like to offer a little bit more. We truly believe in the team concept and offer profit sharing based on team project performance. Live to work, or work to live? We realize work-life balance is important to our potential employees. It is important to us too! Our business model promotes flexibility of schedule and a results-based work environment. We are not looking for clock-punchers and seat-fillers. We are looking for motivated individuals who thrive in an environment of maximizing efficiency and self-improvement. We realize that everyone works differently and have set up our infrastructure to take advantage of a goals and results-based schedule. Potential for career growth into leadership-level position in the engineering group.
