Virtual Radiologic reviews about "management"

company management with nonphysician decision makers

Agree with the review a few days ago. I more have "warnings" for those who are looking to apply: - If you can't deal with a continuously changing, fast-pace environment, this is not the place for you. - Like most companies, there are different levels of performers. Unfortunately, the low performers are the loudest (you'll see their reviews below). The funny thing is, it doesn't take much to be a high performer. It's pretty simple actually. You really just need to be able to work independently, do quality work, and show you can meet the minimum job expectations. Management gives you TONS of chances and coaching too to help you get to that minimum threshold. - vRad is flexible with team members, but will let team members go if they can't cooperate with their boss, take too many breaks to gossip in the break room or on IM/emails. Even though you're one person in the company, vRad's work fluctuates, so when one person is slacking, it not only hurts their department, but the doctors and the patients waiting for our services.

Horrible management and leadership throughout

Pay is not encouraging, little or no career advancement

They give Management positions to people with 0 management experience which creates a bad work environment for those being managed. There is a high turnover rate. People are constantly getting fired and they have a hard time keeping employees in the higher stress jobs therefore creating tons of work for everyone else. They have unrealistic expectations. For example, a co-worker mentioned that they were given more work than everyone else on their team on purpose so that they could fire her when she couldn't complete the work. They make up reasons to fire you and create fake paper trails to cover themselves. Depending on your department, I'd seriously think twice before working here.

You, and by that I mean everyone, has virtually no value in the eyes of upper management. Don't get me wrong, there have been a few good eggs that have managed to make it long enough to be promoted up through the years and decided to stick around. For the most part, however, daily life at vRad is a never-ending game of office politics where brown-nosing is encouraged and doing the morally right thing could get you fired. At the end of the day, the only valued aspect of the business is numbers. When something goes wrong on a multi-department level, they'll cut anyone loose just to have a head to present.

The income wasn’t as competitive as the market analysis, in my opinion

Isolating, large group therefore hard to be heard sometimes.

Lack of respect for employee's outside life. Inconsistent management, often overwhelming workloads, high employee turnover, unfair favoritism, hours not flexible, despite being told otherwise- you do not get the ability to work from home unless you have good ties with the managers
