      Pros

      You need a job and nothing else is working out? ...go for it. But learn and get what you can for as short a time as you can...and GET OUT! Don't get sucked in the Antech/VCA culture.

      Cons

      Expensive health care. More work; lesser pay. Too much to hope for employee appreciation. Hard workers either gets burned out or becomes scape goats. Not much of any training. You have to practically teach yourself. Accountability for all...none for management. Errors and problems (which is rampant) are fixed by simply firing employees instead of proper training. No employee retention program.

      Stay away from VCA unless you have no experience because they will hire anybody.

      Pros

      Great employee discount, decent doctors to work with, they will train you if you have no experience. Because it is a corporate environment, they are sticklers for policy and protocol. This is a good way to learn the "right way" of doing things. They are very concerned with legality issues.

      Cons

      Awful management, crummy pay, having to stick to corporate "policy". You are only seen as a body instead of a person. They can and will replace you with someone else.. and they don't give a hoot!
