Pros

The pros of working at VCA are getting to meet great animals, working with some cool people, being able to bond with clients about their animals and gaining experience.

Cons

The downsides of working at VCA is poor management, feeling like all of your work is for nothing, doing constant repetitive things and there’s a lot of drama.

Pros

great free continuing education offered multiple times throughout the year

Cons

hours are long and demanding, there is negative accrual so you essentially don't get any paid time off...it goes against your production. It really stinks.
