Pros

Amazing people to work with, great culture, incredible salary and benefits.

Cons

Very busy ER (expected), but a LOT of time is spent with clients, phone calls etc and very little time for charting…which means you spend your next day off finishing paperwork. Work/life balance is a challenge.

Thank you for your feedback—we’re so glad you’re enjoying #lifeatVEG!. Emergency is always on, but that doesn’t mean burnout should be. If you’re struggling with work/life balance, we encourage you to talk to your manager or people partner so they can understand the current issues and work with you to figure out a better path forward. Thanks again for being part of the rocketship—and for helping us make VEG better.
