We invest
in our employees
to benefit our customers

Everything we do is focused on creating an environment where our team and their ideas can thrive

Why employee ownership matters

From day one, Visionist’s founding team of seven engineers and analysts committed to sharing the success of the company with those who drive it – our employees. Our Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP) is on track to become Visionist’s largest shareholder, and we want you to be part of it.

Visionist prides itself on serving its employees. Company milestones are an achievement for every employee – from contract wins to celebrating milestone anniversaries in Punta Cana. The ESOP provides the financial stability to take over ownership when founders decide to retire instead of selling the company, one of many reasons why Visionist is not for sale.

Our core values

Visionist’s core values guide our decisions, communicate our goals, and most importantly, hold us accountable. (Hover or tap each core value for details)

Employees first

Visionist's true value lies in the achievements of our employees, and they will always be our top priority. We recognize that valuing our employees above all else will lead to satisfied customers.

Hire great people and trust them

Every candidate we hire must meet our high standards, with a premium placed on communication, collaboration, and enthusiasm just as much as technical ability. We trust our employees to make good decisions and do what's right for our customers, our company, and our team.

Do meaningful, focused work

We are selective in the work we pursue, focusing on building teams of like-minded individuals who collaboratively solve our customers' toughest challenges.

The details matter

We pay attention to details that positively impact our employees, including the design of our offices, our benefits package, and empowering the team to weigh in on corporate strategy.

Look out for the team

Our culture and environment focus on supporting each other, celebrating success, and learning from our experiences. Employees know that our leadership cares about their wellbeing and that their peers are there to collaborate with them, not compete.

Operate with transparency

New employees are often surprised by the amount of information that Visionist leadership shares within the company. We recognize that Visionist's strategic goals require buy-in from our entire team, and as employee-owners, they deserve to see the big picture.
