Pros

Verivo employees are smart, hard-working and pretty fun to hang out with after hours. There are virtually no politics to deal with, and instead the company fosters an openness between employees and management. Hard work is recognized and every single employee is encouraged (and expected!) to contribute good ideas and to take the initiative to get them done. Verivo is 100% focused on the enterprise mobility space, which is an exciting and booming industry. There is a tremendous opportunity right now to shape the direction of this market, and Verivo is working hard to be at the forefront. There are some stealth projects going on that have not yet been announced to the public, so stay tuned for some pretty big things.

Cons

It's no secret that there has been some transition at Verivo over the past several months. Some may interpret this as turmoil but others will recognize the need for some important changes that need to occur in order to keep ahead of the market. In case you don't follow it, mobile technology changes at a rate faster than any other technology in history. Like any small-ish company, employees must be prepared to react quickly to change. Working for a technology company in a cutting edge industry is not for everyone!

Pros

Some very smart and talented people; gives its employees tremendous opportunities to learn and grow in an in-demand industry; does a good job of recognizing talent and promoting from within; benefits are pretty good; a beautiful office; the small-to-mid-sized software company culture. If you're looking to break into mobile and want the small start-up software company feel (and are willing to accept the significant risks that go with it), the company could be a good choice.

Cons

Company faced significant turnover and was forced to have layoffs after it's last major software product steadily became irrelevant (the new office is now half-empty as a result). In fairness to management, they recognized the problem before the company became totally unviable, and the company is now in the process of reinventing itself with its next-gen product, named 'Akula'. Will the product be successful? The jury is out, and if the answer is no, all employees will soon be out of a job. As a result, I can currently only recommend it to people who don't mind driving fast and taking chances. The CEO is smart and talented, but seems to have only passing control of overall product direction, which suffers at the hands of a disjointed product management process that seems to struggle with mapping software development tasks to actual customer needs. Starting compensation is competitive, but doesn't seem to keep pace with the industry as careers progress. This seems to be an issue at a lot of companies, though.
