Pros

Pay and benefits are competitive, some good colleagues

Cons

Too many to count, but the main ones that stick out are: an executive leadership team that’s completely disconnected from employees, hiring leaders that must have been the bottom of the barrel, many many many many broken departments and operations, just to name a few. Tons of turnover, and not necessarily COVID related. Clients are not served, or even prioritized. Your work will not be satisfying because you’ll probably spend a lot of time fixing mistakes. You will encounter very inappropriate exchanges (either between others, yourself, or both) that shouldn’t fly in any organization, ethically or legally. Its easy to assume that leadership sat on their hands for 1+ year waiting to get bought out (they were just acquired by MetLife a few weeks ago) because they seem to have 0 idea what’s going on in the company. I’m pretty sure that individuals aren’t empowered to fix fundamental issues because that would then mean that leadership would actually be held accountable for, oh I don’t know, getting things done? This is a very odd group of leaders (there are some diamonds in the rough, but very, very few) that can somehow make getting a root canal more desirable than being in 1 of the millions of meetings with them that you’ll get committed to, sometimes way past business hours - those are always fun. Red tape galore, dysfunctional politics, roadblock after roadblock after roadblock. People’s health and emotional states decline after starting working here due to how poor this environment is. And to think, it’s a healthcare company, very sad. The employees that are left are more than burned out. Not to mention, the two legacy companies that make up Versant Health are still operating in silos despite becoming Versant Health over 2 years ago. Add that confusion to an already bad situation, and you get a one way ticket to misery-ville. Word of advice: when you see reviews here that are 5 stars with headlines that sound like marketing and business jargon and usually state that cons are due to growth, those are fake and being authored as an attempt to bring the reviews average up. There can’t be that many disgruntled employees and then an occasional person that has nothing bad to say. Everyone has something bad to say, that’s guaranteed.

Pros

No pros I can think off and I was a long time employee nearly 20 years.

Cons

Hostile environment and lack of management. Would not allow you take PTO you had earned, promised promotions piled more work on you and did not appreciate a employee that worked 60-70 hours a week. Management and HR lies and pin you against other coworkers. The company has nothing to offer but stress and mental anxiety. To top it all off they held up my new job because they would not verify employment I had to provide my new employer with 5 years of tax returns because HR would not respond.

Great Pay, but read the fine print.

Pros

Nice office to work in. Pay is actually above average for the area.

Cons

Lack of Communication from top down. Absolutely embarrassing health benefits with high bi-weekly cost for family and ridiculous out-of-pocket requirements. PTO days where cut by 7 days this past year and went from getting vacation days at beginning of year to accrual so that when they let the 400+ people go at the beginning of the year they did not have to pay them out any more than required. No work from home ability.
