Pros

Good benefits and work perks, cool new office being built. Dog friendly.

Cons

They don’t seem to actually care about animals, just about money. Everyone that works there seems tired and they definitely do not care about diversity. They only hired a few people of color after many people already complained, not because it was an initiative. The new CPO is a piece of work, I liked working at VEG before she came along and changed a lot of the company culture and made hires that fit more to her culture than the companies, and got rid of people she simply didn’t like or didn’t want to deal with. Also this company is truly the definition of “at will” employment because they will decide to let you go and expect you done and out in the next hour with no warnings

Hi there! We totally understand how upsetting it is to be let go, especially during this difficult time. However, VEG has a leadership academy program that trains our leaders on how to properly give feedback and communicate when an employee isn't performing well. Communication is always provided prior to the termination of any employee because documentation of the employee's performance is needed as per HR requirements. We are also aware of the burn out of everyone in our industry, including in our hospitals, and have put in place multiple activities to show our appreciation for the hard work of everyone that works at VEG. We have put together a DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) team as well, that focuses exclusively on making sure we continue to commit to our goal of hiring amazing people from all races, cultures, sexual preferences and more. If there are any specific issues you encountered during your time at VEG, please contact us at hr@veg.vet and we will do everything in our power to assist you. Good luck on your future endeavors!

Pros

Clients get to stay with their pets-this is so beneficial for helping the patients feel reassured and comforted during their stay.

Cons

The work ethic of the support staff is deplorable. There is chronic laziness throughout the staff (except for a few staff members who consistently work hard). VEG is known for hiring really young DVMs, and although they complete the 1 yr NERD program, many come out unprepared, are practicing medicine without continued mentorship, make grave medical errors, misdiagnose, and are incompetent surgeons.
