Pros

it was a good company when I first joined, but now it is not. I enjoyed my original team with great leadership, but multiple reorgs changed my team around.

Cons

There are plenty of cons. This is from my experience mostly; • Terrible executives. Only use buzzwords to "build the future of the company" but have no tangible plan for change. They avoid criticism and do not address tough questions from employees. • career progression can difficult from what I heard. Granted, I was not here long enough to fully experience that. Lack of open remote jobs EXCEPT for upper management. • Abrupt hybrid schedule change. • Broken promises from when I first joined. • Multiple team changes. Not necessarily a bad thing, but my experience was with the new team. Lack of help, direction, or respect. • Layoffs. This was poorly executed. Seemed like Byron did not care for the leaving staff. Insanely talented employees with incredible experience were cut. "SMART growth" means new openings will be coming next year yet they cut talent to increase their bottom line at the end of the year... Just bad decisions and lack of accountability. "Be BOLD, but only if it aligns with our ever-changing restructures every 6 months."

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?
