Pros

- A very well-known and admired organization in Portland - The ability to do good for animals and their owners - Great benefits - Competitive pay - Teaching hospital - Lots of room to move up - A lot of encouragement from supervisors

Cons

- Depending on your position, it can be extremely fast-paced and stressful - A lot of burn-out on the hospital floor due to high-stress situations - The assistance fund is very limited but pet owners are constantly coming in and assuming they'll get it because they don't have money - this creates a lot of stress between front desk, clients and doctors
