Who We Are
The human voice is capable of conveying nuances and meaning that just can't be expressed through clicks and text messages. And for that reason, voice interactions have always had a special power to shape your perception and experiences.
 
At Versay, we believe in the unique power of voice interactions to create more expressive, more intimate, and more efficient interpersonal interactions. Our experts work with Fortune 500 companies to help them serve their customers more efficiently and effectively through the use of various voice technologies. From basic network services to state-of-the-art IP telephony to cutting-edge real-time analytics, Versay technology makes millions of voice interactions better every day.
 
We offer competitive compensation and affordable benefits with flexibility and choice to meet individual and family (including Domestic Partnerships) needs, including:
  • Multiple medical, dental, and vision plan options 
  • Company-paid life insurance, short and long-term disability 
  • 401(k) savings plan with company match (50% on first 6% of employee contribution) 
  • 35 days total annual PTO 
  • Annual Bonus Program  
  • Paid maternity and paternity leave 
  • Relocation allowance 
  • Employee referral bonus 
  • Gym membership 
  • Technical and Professional Development stipend
 
We are striving to implement and sustain an inclusive and equitable work environment for all employees by sourcing underrepresented groups and continually empowering those individuals within our organization to further enrich Versay's communication solutions. We recognize that equitable and unique individuals benefit our teams' problem-solving, innovation, and development efforts. 
 
Our offices are located in Deerfield and Chicago, IL. Interviews and onboarding are conducted in our offices when possible. We observe a hybrid work format that provides employees with the flexibility to collaborate with team members based on business needs. 
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
