Leaders deliver company values inconsistently

Pros

The work we do to help transform lives of people with type 2 diabetes is very rewarding. The Virta Treatment itself is incredibly effective. Many employees at Virta are intelligent, emotionally mature, and supportive teammates.

Cons

Leaders in upper management verbally emphasize the important of our company values of being people-first, taking ownership, and maintaining transparency; however, they do the opposite of exemplifying our company values in their actions and decisions on a regular basis.

Pros

Remote working, having the ability to mute your microphone during waste-of-time propaganda meetings. Benefits for L&D, and work at home stipend.

Cons

Any role that is Member facing is treated like trash. When they post positions, the sum total has often been 2-3 million, with the absolute lowest salaries being those helping Members. That says a lot- but then again, it's a for profit healthcare company, so that says it all. Every meme/satire or TT you've ever seen about toxic corporate workplaces are made because of places like Virta. Every manager, associate director and director share skillsets with snake-oil salesmen of old. They talk and you're aware they're using poor manipulation techniques that just give you the creeps. Nothing matters. High performers, low performers, those who have second jobs who don't even do their job- doesn't matter. You're all the same to them. They'll find a carrot to try to dangle- like 3 percent peanut butter raises. They abhor internal promotions, so it's a dead end job, no matter how much you demonstrate your value with metrics, skillsets, education, and experience. During hiring they sing a song about promotions, growth, new company, yadda-yadda, but it's all a lie. There's no communication between teams, and tribal knowledge rules. The left had has no idea what the right is doing. It honestly feels like a money laundering operation for people who know directors to get insider jobs. Run.

Pros

The people (not leadership though).

Cons

It's a shame this company has so many toxic leaders because it's honestly a great place to work if you are far enough removed from said toxic leaders. CEO- Good at business. Bad at people. Robotic. Tries to be charming but says some really out of pocket and offensive things that are just so out of touch with reality. He's an elitist - he'll like you if you have a degree from an ivy league but looks down on people who don't. The rest of the C-suite is pretty normal, although I hear there are a lot of egos and none of them like each other. The COO is a bit high strung but overall a good guy. CFO is very nice. Chief People Officer is awkward and doesn't seem to know how to read a room. The workforce lacks diversity. Not very many black people (concerning) and HR overall seems to not understand basics of people management and let managers fire people with no rhyme or reason. It creates a culture of fear. Honestly do yourself a favor and stay away.
