Pros

VSP is a fabulous place to work! I look forward to coming to work each day because it doesn’t feel like a job. I’m on a great team of people with incredible insights who like to laugh and have fun, but also get hard work done. We are open, honest, and supportive—and most importantly, we’re treated by management like human beings who have lives outside of work. I have incredible flexibility in my role and can work from home as often as I need to (due to childcare issues/sickness, car trouble, emergencies, etc.). My pay is definitely fair, and my hard work is rewarded every year with a bonus and raise. The benefits are exceptional, although the health plan is high deductible, but we don’t pay any premium for health or vision insurance, so I really can’t complain. NO employers out there offer basically FREE health and vision. There’s a ton of career development training classes offered so I can build my skills in any area I want. Management also encourages us to focus on our careers so we can evolve within VSP and look forward to the next step (and to avoid burnout in our current role). I’ve never had an employer care so much about my career and happiness in what I do every day. I appreciate that VSP is always looking for honest input to help improve the employment experience so all employees, regardless of role or location, feel like I do. It’s a true testament to the great culture they’re creating company-wide. My favorite novelty things about VSP? Glasses, Halloween, Christmas, Cake Day, Volunteer Opportunities (in the community and on the mobile clinics), Employee Discounts, Freebies to Concerts and Sports Games, Take Your Child to Work Day, Take Your Parent to Work Day, Business Resource Groups, On-Campus Gym, Outdoor Lunch and Meeting Spaces, and Bi-Annual All Staff with CEO.

Cons

I honestly have no cons.

Worst Job I Ever Had

Pros

Can't really think of any other than you're employed.

Cons

Where to start... Punitive environment. Abusive environment. Employees seem friendly but then throw you under the bus every chance they get. No real goals just talking about all the things that need to get done. A lot of what but now how or why. Privately held company run by old men. They have to approve everything. I'm not kidding. Any communications or design elements that the doctors or patients see needs to be approved by committee. It takes forever for anything to get done. Pay is low. Benefits are outrageously expensive. The worst place I have ever worked.

Pros

Great 401K benefits and eye insurance

Cons

Inexperience management that makes it hard to work with, I don't know how some managers get hired but if they can't read data charts it says a lot about who they hire or want to hire. Just like any other workplace, if you have friends in the upper management area you'll get far. If not you better start making friends with other departments if you want to grow in this company.

Pros

Benefits are the best I’ve ever had, people are super nice and helpful

Cons

Call center provides high stress and poor hours, there’s not a lot of room to move up, it’s hard to even move laterally within the line of business. Very hard to find time off and if you need time off it can hurt your metrics which lessens your value to the call center. It is also incredibly hard to get to know any of your peers since you’re constantly on the phones with back to back to back calls and your schedules rarely match up. Also, not much value or recognition towards the staff. Cake days don’t make up for that.

Pros

Work life balance . Good vision care benefit. Good dental benefit. Decent 401k. People are generally good. Central location away from downtown makes easy commute.

Cons

Limited growth potential for bright young people. Company is too slow to changes in industry. Most company products are not profitable. At risk for going out of business. Stagnant leadership. Poor healthcare benefits. Only High deductible plans offered, no comprehensive coverage.

Pros

There are very few pros with VSP, but your vacations will never be denied. The door is always opened and a great place to start an office career. (be careful, they call VSP "Hotel California, very hard to leave once you're in) 401k is fair. Dental is good and vision... come on you own a vision company give a little coverage...1 pair per year. Coverage is very limited to their brand and its subpar at best. Company Cafe's are great. Cake day once a month. Casual environment. Flexible work hours for some departments. EAP and you're going to need it.

Cons

Medical benefits provided "VERY" high deductible. The company contributes $300/$600 per yr to cover employees/family out of pocket expenses and but you pay $4000 deductible per employee and each family member, then your coverage kicks in. Wages are way below what other health companies in the area especially if you take into consideration the medical coverage. If you need the work experience VSP will do the trick but get in and get out as soon as possible.
