Pros

*Health care benefits, 401k, and CE allowance provided *Ability to transfer hospitals if you move *Partnered with Penn Foster to help.get techs licensed (but does require 3 year post graduation commitment at the same hospital which is a con)

Cons

*Low pay/inequality in pay scales- long process to get small raises *No bonuses *Very poor upper management- if you're lucky to get one of the few awesome hospital manager you might be ok. *Those with more responsibilities not valued- too focused on preventing bad reviews from bad lower level employees *Inability to easily removed team members that are creating toxic/negative environment- have to jump through hoops with HR to get anything done. *Lack of transparency- team members don't feel valued if they're kept in the dark. *Too much emphasis on wellness programs- required to sell packages which are not transferrable between VCAs if owner moves (big issue in Seattle) *Leads not adequately compensated for the responsibilities they take on. Too much asked for absolutely NO reward. *Ridiculous prices on certain things- price scale based on location but takes a while to get anything changed
