Pros

Using your skills and growing as a nurse High quality tools (somtimes)

Cons

•Absolutely insulting pay •Complete overbooking of appointments even if staff is super short •Have to beg for raises • On a hiring freeze so you will be chronically under staffed, but don’t worry, they also won’t reschedule anything! Good luck • Doctors can absolutely get away with what they want. And VCA forces them to be money hungry. Yes the doctors have quotas. • money hungry company that puts all employees last under the guise of “more pets needing care”. Oh and they force you to sell their monthly care plan.

Pros

This company offers many opportunities for doctors and techs to grow in their careers. They provide tons of support and they've been making HUGE changes to veterinary medicine on a whole. I have never known another company to offer so many benefits and perks for staff (especially techs), and they're even making lots of effort to invest in the veterinary receptionists-the front line associates of the hospital. They're also making great strides to acknowledge some of the feedback we've had for many years. They're savvy and smart, making business decisions that build on a company that will be around a long time (and has.)

Cons

There have been times where transparency and communication are lacking, and sometimes to the point where hospital-level employees feel left out or unheard. Some bigger topics like onboarding and navigating what support comes from where could be more clear. It feels like they've been fusing on new concepts/policies/features to the company, making it feel like a clunky machine rather than building something new and streamlined. Maybe it's in the works, but how do we know down here?
