Pros

- Fantastic Individuals in the company I made incredible relationships inside the company. Many people here are fantastic and care deeply for each other well being. -Teamwork Vizient has great teamwork and many collaborative efforts that assist in moving the ball forward on projects.

Cons

- Base Pay Vizient is outpaced on almost metric when it comes to salary and benefits. They have lost an incredible amount of Software Engineers because they pay them much lower than their peers in the country. On top of that, they pay some Software Engineer even lower on arbitrary standards. - Healthcare Their benefits, especially for healthcare, rather a lack luster. This is funny because Vizient is the lead Healthcare GPO company in the country; yet, Vizient healthcare is an expensive premium with no co-pays and a high deductible. - PTO Vizient gives a decent amount of PTO. For myself, I get 25 PTO days a year. However, depending on your team, it can be excruciating to take PTO. - Management The management restructuring has been detrimental to the work environment at Vizient. They have implemented a top-down management style on the Software Engineers, leading to mediocre results, especially since some of the management does not have experience as a Software Engineer. They do not utilize Agile Methodologies and do not act as if they trust the developers they pay to do the jobs.

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?
