Virtual Radiologic reviews about "people"

- No real direction. - Senior management has squandered leadership position. - Ownership has diluted all equity holders to $0. - Too much turnover. - Management lacks the fortitude to do what is required. - Current strategy appears to be focused on pursuing anyone who might pay them for their patents.

Where do I begin? Management has not idea what they are doing. The company sent out a survey to all departments and results were lower than low, everything from morale to trust, and management said "Let's have a potluck". What did they expect? They micromanage and question every move their employees make, including people who have worked there for years. There is absolutely no support from management, none. Growth opportunity? Negative. All they are interested in is having smiling bobble-heads and promotions are handed out in a random, draw the lucky stick fashion. If I have to hear the statement "I'm going to coach you" or "You need to coach them" one more time I might crack. The work environment is so hostile it's miserable, people throwing people under the bus with every chance they get. crapRad is going nowhere fast and I think their turnover rate speaks for itself.

Poor benefits - No 401k match, High Deductible HSA, PTO accrued monthly which won't be paid out if you leave, and you can only carry over minimal amounts. They have had lay-offs nearly every year for the past 4 years. This is a result of consistantly poor management & forecasting. Additionally, after most layoffs, there are a slew of promotions - at the director level and above. The people who weren't laid off are really the unlucky ones - they have double the amount of an unrealistic workload to handle. There are continual billing & collection issues, yet they refuse to bring in experienced leadership to stop the bleeding. They had an experienced leader in that position for awhile, but she quit. If you want to work for a company that values tenure and your contributions, this is not the place. vRad routinely replaces people who have been there a long time with people who will do the job for less. Hence, quality is continually decreasing. After the last round of layoffs, they contacted people whom they had laid off and asked them if they'd come back and do the same role in a temp position. No raises / bonuses for past 2 years. While most companies right now are challenged with doing more with less, vRad's expectations are simply unrealistic. Their tools are ancient and inefficient, they will not invest in new tools. vRad was bought by Equity partners, whom have all but totally eroded the focus this company once had on patient care. The CEO lives in NY and travels to MN weekly to be onsite - he wouldn't even move here.

I really don't have anything bad to say about the company. I love working here, and love the people I work with.

The review from April 9, 2014 titled “Review of the Facts about vRad, it's culture and Leadership” says it all and, in my opinion, is truly an accurate reflection of vRad. My advice to prospective employees…if you’re out of work and need a paycheck, vRad can provide that; however, if you’re gainfully employed and considering leaving a job for vRad, I would strongly encourage you to think twice and then think again before you choose vRad. Oh, and don’t expect much from the HR team…they’re about as unfriendly and self-serving as they come.
