Based on staff surveys of nearly 300 web pros who blur the line between work and play, The Nerdery ranked #1 on Mpls-St. Paul Business Journal's 2010 and 2011 Best Places to Work list. A popularity contest? You bet. We’re also #4 on Minneapolis Star Tribune’s 2010 Top Workplace list. Now with an office in Chicago, The Nerdery was founded by three programmers in 2003. The Nerdery has made the Inc 5000 and Biz Journal’s Fast 50 list of fast-growing privately owned companies for the past four years. The Nerdery was honored in 2010 with The Quality of Life Award and The Jefferson Award for corporate philanthropy/nerdy-deeds-done-dirt-cheap through our Nerdery Overnight Website Challenge, at which volunteers have donated more than $2.5 million to 84 nonprofits in Minnesota and Illinois.
