Pros

Working from home is awesome, benefits are really good. Great health insurance and other benefits. Great to help people improve their health.

Cons

The job is really nice. However there are way too many members a coach has to take here at once. You will be tied to your task most of the day. Hard to take breaks because a caseload is so heavy and management doesn't seem to care. Even though it's an hourly job, you will spend a lot of your own personal time trying to get the job done. A work life balance is not very good. If you ask for help, there is no one to help. You will have a very large panel of patients and if you don't respond to all of those patients the next day they send you a ton more.

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.
