Pros

As healthcare provider, you won't find a better culture than that of Virta. All my colleagues are smart, respectful, and genuinely care about achieving the company's mission and helping patients improve their health. On the Health Coach team, they are continuing to work on career development paths so that there are plenty of growth opportunities for coaches. This is very much a work in progress, but I do believe there is plenty of room for career growth as a Health Coach. The work is meaningful and you cannot deny that. As coaches, we get to form meaningful relationships with patients, many of whom may come from underserved populations, and help them on their journey towards better health.

Cons

Compensation (most specifically: annual salaries) still needs improvement; coaches, a majority of whom are credentialed (whether that is RN, RD, etc...), for how integral they are to the Virta Treatment experience, are very much underpaid and have taken fairly significant pay cuts to join Virta. While there are bonuses available each quarter, only recently have they moved towards a meaningful amount.

Pros

Remote working, having the ability to mute your microphone during waste-of-time propaganda meetings. Benefits for L&D, and work at home stipend.

Cons

Any role that is Member facing is treated like trash. When they post positions, the sum total has often been 2-3 million, with the absolute lowest salaries being those helping Members. That says a lot- but then again, it's a for profit healthcare company, so that says it all. Every meme/satire or TT you've ever seen about toxic corporate workplaces are made because of places like Virta. Every manager, associate director and director share skillsets with snake-oil salesmen of old. They talk and you're aware they're using poor manipulation techniques that just give you the creeps. Nothing matters. High performers, low performers, those who have second jobs who don't even do their job- doesn't matter. You're all the same to them. They'll find a carrot to try to dangle- like 3 percent peanut butter raises. They abhor internal promotions, so it's a dead end job, no matter how much you demonstrate your value with metrics, skillsets, education, and experience. During hiring they sing a song about promotions, growth, new company, yadda-yadda, but it's all a lie. There's no communication between teams, and tribal knowledge rules. The left had has no idea what the right is doing. It honestly feels like a money laundering operation for people who know directors to get insider jobs. Run.
