At VGS, we have a remote‑first philosophy because we believe flexibility leads to great work and a healthy work‑life balance. That said, if you live within 30 miles of one of our office locations, you’ll be on a hybrid schedule with some in‑person time—because we know there’s real value in coming together.

We’re not about being in the office every day—but we are about connection, collaboration, and the energy that comes from a great brainstorm, a team lunch, or celebrating a big win in person.
