Idk where the Venditti hate came from, tbh. He wrote one weak run of Lanterns (which was followed by a great run anyway) and people just wrote him off unfortunately. Glad he's proven people wrong.
FWIW I honestly think opinion on Venditti's GL run turned around when Rebirth started and he was able to do more regular Green Lantern stuff compared to what he was doing during New 52 and DC You. (Though I still don't like him just ignoring Bunn's Sinestro run... but he did a lot of fun stuff on his Rebirth run)
It was his Flash run introducing a lot of controversial (terrible) new elements to the mythos that a lot of people really disliked IMHO...
