Pros

Great co-workers, doctors and clients. Easy to work your way up from within to a certain point. Benefits are great.

Cons

The company is corporate run and tends to look more at the money rather than the animals and employees. Pay isn't that great unless you are a Veterinarian or in the corporate office.

Pros

There are not many good things to say

Cons

Management is horrible! The management of this hospital creates a toxic environment and creates animosity between doctors and staff. They bad-mouthed the medical director to the staff and tried to get him fired. They do not place any value on their employees! Everyone is replaceable.

Pros

- PTO - Pet Discount was INCREDIBLE!!! Only thing that made it tolerable -Create a strong bond with families and pets

Cons

-Under staffed ALL THE TIME -Upper management seemed heartless and too uninterested in actual client interactions, but the actual Hospital Managers were great -Lots of animosity going on. Some doctors looked down on techs and receptionists and most techs looked down at receptionists. -Techs and doctors often made receptionists do their dirty work for them when it came to 'dealing' with the clients -Training was not long enough for what goes on there when it came to new people. Thankfully, I was one of the lucky ones given proper training -More hospital funds were spent on fancy luncheons than for people who could not afford healthcare -No real shot at moving up the ranks
