Boston VA Research Institute Reviews

The work you do is for VA, and it is quite stable. Good benefits. Good growth opportunities.

I came from the startup world, and was hesitant leaving the shiny and fancy. My office was nice, my perks were cool, my vacation was unlimited, and everything was so laid back. I took the job at BVARI to get going on a new career path, but I was nervous leaving behind the laid back 15th floor downtown company for a rough-around the edges non-profit. To my wonder I'm very glad I did. The culture is very laid back, the people are great, the benefits are better, and the work is challenging. I get to come in and do what I want to do with flexibility and very defined room for growth; something my old job did not fulfill. BVARI even changed the job I interviewed for just for me. The people are all very nice, intelligent, passionate, and fun. So, in reality I left a startup where I wasn't growing or doing what I wanted, and lost the fancy digs and cool perks. But I stumbled into a role I wanted in a passionate non-profit with similar culture. So far it's been worth the loss of the fluff!
