Do you work with large or small companies?

Both. Virtustant places professionals with startups, small businesses and enterprise teams across the US, from a single hire to whole teams.

Is a nearshore hire better than offshore?

For most US teams, yes: a nearshore hire from Latin America works your business hours, so you collaborate in real time instead of across a 10- to 12-hour gap.
