Pros

Pay was competitive and benefits were good. 3 days of bereavement leave including for pets was great. Ability to bring my quiet well behaved dog to work with me was wonderful as I am single. Diversity in my hospital was pretty reflective of our community in terms of support staff, though not vets. A lot of the culture is good. Some of the best doctors and support staff I've ever worked with.

Cons

Tolerance for bullying by certain "favorite" staff members. Clique-y. Lack of clear communication regarding expectations (I am autistic - perhaps someone allistic would have struggled less but poor communication is poor communication). Did not respect my skill level or experience and only focused on what I need more experience with. Training and development started strong and then dropped off to nothing. Was told I was inconveniencing my team and they were growing to resent me because I suffered an injury on the job that required me to take medical leave.

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.
