Pros

Reasonable benefits, 401K and "some" decisions are made at a local level. And that is being nice.

Cons

The immediate money is what counts at this company; pet and pet owners are secondary. And staff is at the bottom of the scale!!! 3 paid holidays per year!! And raises/salaries are low, yearly only, no matter how hard you work. Drs are asked to do unpaid duties all the time; and they will add to your contract at their discretion! You can leave if you do not like it. There is no interest to change anything. Many successful hospitals are being run into the ground by management who refuse to understand that customer service (after hours availability, care not to raises fee so high, happy staff, maintained facilities, ....) was the reason for the success.

WHAT A MESS!!!!

Pros

Not much!!! The really cute Dogs and Cats. Days Off!!!

Cons

Really miserable staff. I have never worked at a place where everyone talks about each other, stabs each other in the back, will not help each other, offices look like a bunch of slobs work there and that is just the Hospital management. Interns who act more like babys then doctors encouraged by management. When I started VCA I thought working at a SPECIALTY hospital would mean working with the best of the best!! All I can say is WHAT A MESS!!
