Pros

Great company and vision, both cofounders do a great job.

Cons

The experience at headquarters largely depends on your direct manager. The culture tends to reward those with loud, extroverted personalities rather than those who deliver consistent results. Professionalism is inconsistently enforced—some employees display inappropriate behavior without consequences, and in some cases, are even rewarded. HR tends to focus on de-escalation rather than addressing the root causes of issues, which leads to ongoing morale problems. While the company promotes an inclusive culture, there is a noticeable lack of diversity within certain departments, both in appearance and thought. Gossip and disengagement are common, and high performers are often overlooked in favor of those who are simply more visible. Great brand and mission, but the peoples team management and accountability need serious improvement

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.
