VCA reviews

Where do I start?? -NO BREAKS -NO TRAINING: coworkers don't help you out and seem to get some sick satisfaction from watching you fail -Inappropriate behavior and conversations by staff in front of clients -Doctors and techs treat you as if you are inferior -False promises, assigned more tasks than discussed in interview -Being forced to treat dying animals as opportunities for money -NO payment plans or any sort of mercy for people begging to save their pet -Being forced to go into rooms and go over euthanasia with customers (should be a techs job!!) -Being screamed at by people over the phone every single day -Pay is terrible: you make the same at Dairy Queen -Co-workers are disengaged and rude to newcomers AND clients -Boss is money hungry and completely out of touch with client service -If you work here, you must have no qualms about cleaning diarrhea off the front rug 3 times a day -No communication between departments, absolute chaos and confusion -Ridiculous policies that force you to emotionally manipulate clients and avoid giving them the cost of service until they are forced to pay every penny at checkout -Rampant sexism, men get favored by management at every turn (even getting gifts) -The computer program used (Woofware) is so confusing and counter-intuitive that none of the new employees could use it even after months of trying to learn

Overworking your staff, underpaid staff, unappreciated, highly overcharging clients. I poured my heart and soul into this company for 5yrs, i had transportation issues so I was upset i had to resign. I asked if I could transfer where I was closer. After being told a position was available, went through 2 interviews and heard position was dropped. Then 2 weeks later, they post an opening for same position. After calling HR i was told i was never offer a position and the interview, well the manager felt sorry for me so she put me through 2 interviews. Oh and the position thats open, yeah that was posted to hopefully get application to fill another position, so technically they are not hiring for that specific position according to HR. What company does that to a loyal, hardworking passionate employee? Not to mention you treat senior employees as well as amazing veterinarians like crap until they quit. And above all you over charge clients and make them feel bad thinking they can't take care of they're babies. Shame on you VCA! I loved the ppl i worked with and for, thats the only positive feedback i can give.
