Pros

Blue cross blue shield benefits matching retirement

Cons

The sales targets were unrealistic and the CEO is running the company into the ground. He does not care about the employees. The company is run like an oppressive dictatorship. Years ago, new ideas were welcome and different perspectives were heard. The last 5 years or so the company has been on a downward trajectory. While I left the company, friends still there report that the company and culture are continuing to deteriorate - more oppressive, more authoritarian, more controlling - all the things professionally and personally you do NOT want. Stay away. The jobs out there offer better companies and cultures elsewhere.

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?
