Pros

They offered a lot of CE. Pay is average

Cons

Very directive. One minute we have to sell one product and the next they change it. They tell us how to practice. Regional medical leadership /management felt very micro- managy. Schedules would change sometimes last minute and at times people would be sent to other offices. There are many management layers

Pros

Medical staff is excellent, good team environment

Cons

Corporate level doesn't care that prices are exorbitant. They do not listen to recommendations for different blood panels, monitoring gold standards or even minimum standards, and price people out of even being able to treat their pets, let alone do diagnostics. They could treat a much broader range of pets (from all different zip codes in the area, not just the ones with money) if they made prices more affordable.
