Miserable HR structure and complete lack of response to concerns - Veterinarian Lakefield Veterinary Group Employee Review

Pros

Benefits are better than some

Cons

Only focus is on revenue, as long as that is hitting their goals, they ignore all of the signs that a practice is about to implode. Target employees to be forced out of the company without any actual knowledge of the workings of a practice and gut the support staff of a practice. Repeated promises by higher ups that they care deeply and are always available to help with concerns, yet the first and every subsequent time you ask for help, they refuse to respond to either emails or voicemails.

Thank you for sending us your feedback, we value hearing about all employees’ experiences and concerns to help make Lakefield a better place. Our Human Resources department has recently added more staff as well as implemented a new online help system with a 24 hour response time that we hope will address these issues in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate you outlining your experience. As with many roles in payroll, the initial period is more structured to ensure accuracy and a clear understanding of processes. We understand that can feel more hands-on at first. We will take your feedback into consideration as we continue to review our processes and support. We wish you the best moving forward.
