Pros

They have multi able areas

Cons

High school drama with the doctors. Insurance sucks especially after the doctors get it for free and the staff has to pay for it. Up sale every thing. Out for the money not for the pet.

Pros

Free coffee, a parking lot and close to bus stops. There are some nice co-workers. You can learn how the corporate culture works, which may be useful for avoiding it in your future.

Cons

Long hours for every job position, low pay, half hour lunch breaks, expensive healthcare options with huge deductibles, disrespect from supervisors, bathroom breaks are scrutinized for time and frequency. Overtime is expected but not appreciated. Good work is over looked, you will never hear the words "good job". Any mistake is exaggerated beyond rational expectations. Jobs here are mainly entry level, even when they sound like so much more on the interview. Plan to learn fast and move on from this "stepping-stone" company with an extremely high turn-over rate.

Pros

Room for advancement if you are willing to go the corporate route. Job security. Easy to relocate. Opportunity to train. Frequent paid seminars.

Cons

Poor pay, worse benefits. Emphasis is on profit and sales, rather than the veterinarians oath. Employees are expected to be equally good salesmen as vets, technicians, etc.
