Pros

Reception staff, doctors, nurse trainer and other nurses are great people. Free snacks.

Cons

Hospital manager who has no idea what it takes to run a hospital and has not stepped foot in a hospital prior to this job. He does not communicate with shift leads and expects you to stay on the floor while he gets to smoke outside all day. Tries to make changes to the hospital that do NOT need to be made and doesn't listen to your input. You are not valued, respected or heard. Forget about sitting down for 5 minutes to catch your breath. It won't happen without you being reprimanded. He will say one thing and then do the complete opposite. All employees fear they are the next to be fired for no reason. Pay is not good enough to go through the stress. Be ready to also work a LOT off the clock and have about 10 new apps on your phone.

Pros

The only pro I fell into this place was having the open concept flooring.So clients could actually see what we were doing, and they weren't thinking we were just ignoring them

Cons

Constantly short-staffed, no compassion for their staff. I lost my father during covid.And I needed a little more time my manager at the time was amazing.But she was replaced while I was out by somebody else who had no compassion.It's very cult like i would definitely say that the management at the location I was at was terrible.That they replaced my original manager with all about the money, not really about the pets, as much as they drill it into your head, they say they are

Thank you for sharing your experience and for the time you spent at VEG. We’re happy our open concept design was a positive aspect of your experience, but we’re very sorry you felt unsupported during your time here, especially during such a difficult time in your life. Compassion and support for our VEGgies is incredibly important to us, so your experience with leadership, and staffing is not what we want for our teams. Thank you again for sharing your perspective; feedback like yours helps us continue to grow and improve.
