If you want to join a cult, this is for you

Pros

Good pay and benefits. As a Customer, this is a wonderful experience. You can add ER to your resume.

Cons

No separation between work and home life. You better be ready to join this cult 100 percent, or you will feel like an outsider. Throw facebook out the window, because these guys will want you on workchat when you are at home. Are you a hard worker who cares about your quality of work? Good, because the lazier individuals around you will take advantage of this and get paid the same for less work. Contagious diseases are not taken as seriously as they should be, and the staff acts like it's high school social hour. They say they are inclusive, but that only applies if you like it Their way. A specialist was using derogatory language about a group of people, while attempting to be "woke" in the workplace....They will make you uncomfortable if you don't get on board.

Somewhat cultish

Pros

Free scrubs, ever changing daily activities, a company that appears to really care

Cons

Total lack of on boarding outside of zoom meetings to talk about company culture. No actual break during your 12-14hr shift and frowned at when you sit down to eat. Non-licensed employees given access to schedule 1 controlled drugs. My particular manager was never actually there, would just pop in for five minutes then leave. Employees had to create the work flow from scratch.

Hi there! Thank you for sharing your feedback - we apologize for not providing an onboarding experience that is perfected at this time. We are growing rapidly and many things are being adjusted as we go, and onboarding is definitely one of them. We just recently hired a team to focus exclusively on providing that first VEG experience a new employee expects, so we are excited for this upcoming season of onboarding new VEGgies! During a shift, VEGgies are encouraged to eat, sleep and take a desired break as long as they communicate with the rest of the team working that shift. If there is an issue and a VEGgie doesn't feel like he/she/they are able to do so, it should be immediately brought to the hospital's leadership team's attention. When it comes to controlled drugs access, VEG has a dedicated regulatory manager who works closely with DEA consultants to ensure all aspects of controlled substance management are compliant. VEGgies are encouraged to reach out to the compliance department if there are concerns. For this or any other issues, please feel free to contact hr@veg.vet. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors!

Pros

Good pay, full benefits, unlimited CE, responsive to requests for new equipment and medications

Cons

Toxic positivity, gaslighting, “customer experience” is what they do best, marketing and reviews very important to company, while employed here a mass email was sent asking for us to review company on Glassdoor

Hi there! We really appreciate your honest feedback! It is for that exact reason that employees are reminded to share their opinion about our company so we can continue to improve as we grow. We completely understand that dealing with emergency medicine, specially during these tough times, can be difficult and very challenging. However, our VEG family choses to focus on being positive and celebrating our small victories in order to better continue on our mission to help people and their pets when they need it most. We really appreciate the time you dedicated to VEG and we wish you the best in your future endeavors.
