Pros

Free drink machines and popcorn. 5% bonus is better than no bonus. Good if you like doing the same predictable work in the same role for the rest of your career. I rarely if ever work over a 40 hour week. Beautiful campus cafeteria. Good food. Managers polite. Politics I've encountered rarely vicious. My years of boredom/ career stagnation here fueled my fire to massively pivot my career and scale way up.

Cons

Teams are siloed so there's not a lot of socializing. Usually feels pretty isolating. My department's a bad fit for the young driven crowd who want to build their careers and grow. It's common belief here that career progression in this company is limited to VP and above unless you're ready to apply externally to other companies or departments. In several years of annual reviews, my managers have never discussed 'this is how you can get to the next level of your career'. The best description for my experience here is a comfortable box. Some people like security and comfort of a box. I dream of bigger things.

Pros

Good company culture from c-suite down. Genuine care for employees as people with families. We work hard and the vast majority of coworkers and leaders are fantastic.

Cons

In 2025 Vizient fully restricted virtual employees from being promoted and from making any lateral moves. All impacted employees were hired BEFORE this policy was enacted. I was hired at the beginning of 2021 as a virtual employee with the expectation of occasional travel for on-site team and project/client meetings. Now, with the forcing of all employees back to the office, they’ve also restricted virtual roles. Prior to this policy enactment, we were NEVER told our roles could be restricted one day. Now, if we want to apply for lateral or promotional roles we have to move to a city of Vizient’s requirement (Dallas/Chicago primarily). This is extremely unfair. Families can start and roots put down in 4 years. Now, if I want or am recommended for a promotion I have to unexpectedly and without any prior expectation set, uproot my family and our lives to a congested city so I can commute 2-hours roundtrip to be in the office THREE (3) days a week as required by the in-office requirement and take VIRTUAL CALLS from a cubicle. Nothing about this is fair or makes sense. Even with employees being required to be in-office, they just stay half a day or less. Why do this to everyone? Are you planning to lay off all virtual employees?
