Extremely disappointing experience - Nurse Bond Vet Employee Review

Their “corporate culture” does not translate into real life. The management has the same old baby boomer mentality we’re all used to. Management is snotty, has favorites, and it’s their way or the highway. They will fire you for legitimately no reason. I was hired, by Bond, away from a job I’d been at for two years. They had me work Christmas Eve and New Years Day, then fired me citing I wasn’t a good “cultural fit.” No idea what that means and wasn’t offered any details. Oh yeah and they try to say you’ll get a $5k signing bonus but good luck with that. I think they already lowered it to $1k. I was glad to go because the general atmosphere there is just unpleasant to work; it’s a cold and alienating environment, which is ironic since they will tell you they’re all about team work. If you’re a “nurse” (licensed OR unlicensed tech), be prepared to do all the work on the client side, run your own appointments, present estimates, do exams and TPR by yourself, plus collecting samples from animals with assistants who are untrained. You will also be expected to write all the medical records. They’re short staffed, “fear free,” but nobody is on the same page in terms of protocol for anything. Techs always work separate from each other, which I found to be incredibly isolating and lonely. Doctors won’t help you out much either, unless you’re lucky enough to work with one of the few nice ones. On Christmas Eve, one of the CEOs showed up an hour before closing and gave us all a pop quiz on math - happy holidays! Bond would do well to realize that the veterinary world in NYC is very small, and when techs are treated badly, it won’t stay a secret for very long.
