Pros

3 12 hour shifts 2500$ CE accommodations allowance, unlimited CE allowance Very LGBTQ friendly Break room filled with snacks (wasn’t always the case, for whatever reason management punished us by taking away snacks/not restocking them for extended times at one point?) Prioritizing positivity, can absolutely come off as toxic positivity sometimes New tools, price isn’t an object when it comes to staying up to date Open floor plan, stay with your pet at all times See a doctor in 60 seconds (this doesn’t always happen but mostly does) Great benefits, 200$ uniform stipend and $200 VEG Store for swag Many LVTs on shift Cubex drug management system Finger on the pulse with drug inventory Many learning opportunities Rapid expansion Corporate hospitals that run like private practice individually, benefits of corporate without rigidity Leadership tries to be as neutral as possible

Cons

Does not employ experienced doctors Medical negligence run rampant, high surgical complication and mortality rate Pushing $1500 worth of bloodwork on every single case regardless of what it comes in for Inaction from leadership Only when staff quits does management take action on persistent problems - seems like they want to see how long people will hold out, or they don’t care that their team is suffering? Encouraged talking behind peoples backs with their lack of decisive action/discipline, despite VEG’s “armadillo” thing (you’re supposed to say armadillo when you hear gossiping or negativity) Expectation for staff from leadership to be up to date and informed via Meta product Workplace Chat even tho they frequently do not communicate with each other Meddl test taken instead of working interview to determine pay (technical skills don’t matter, it only matters how you test and retain book knowledge) Low average pay Slow to accrue PTO No talks of raises in 1.5 years
