MedVet reviews

Management is not very forthcoming about how you're doing until the last minute, at which point if you need improvement, they'll slap you with a PIP (Performance Improvement Plan) and then from there you're worried about losing the job if you don't improve to their satisfaction.

Unfortunately their training for new employees is disorganized and confusing. There is no training plan with a trajectory or expectations for what you need to have learned by 30/60/90 days. Their basic skills curriculum is freely available but no time is carved out for you to actually go do the classes during your training shifts. There are live courses available as well, but if they are outside of your work availability then too bad, there is no virtual option. You can expect very little to no feedback outside of your 30/60/90 day reviews which are unscheduled and often weeks-months overdue before management gets around to doing them. I felt like I was out of sight, out of mind to management most of the time. Reviews are given “anonymously” by your fellow employees, who may or may not work with you regularly. For example, one of my reviews mentioned something that happened > 6 weeks before the review in question, in an area I had only trained in for 2 days. Overall I found their training process to be an exercise in frustration with no clear path for success. Most coworkers seemed nice enough, however some areas and shifts can be very cliquish and hostile to outsiders. You can forget about any chance of succeeding there once certain people decide they don’t like you.
