Pros

Used to be a great company. Many helpful coworkers, great clients who care about the work they do, and teams that excel in many places.

Cons

Vizient has become a politically correct boy's club. It is completely understandable to have to go through changes, and most of us embrace changes; however, senior leaders repeatedly instill fear in employees, making the process anything but open and transparent. For instance, they prohibit employees from discussing our roles with anyone. Federal laws protect employees' rights to discuss things such as conditions of employment, YET Vizient openly prohibits that during the company reorg. This action and the way management has handled the process have caused a ton of anxiety, fear, disappointment, and emotional distress among all the colleagues that I know. I would not look for a job at this company now unless there is a significant change in senior leadership.

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?
