Steer clear! - Surgery Technician First Coast No More Homeless P Employee Review

Quick to teach you for the job, the staff is usually very friendly, lot's of opportunity to learn and move departments.

Fast paced which can be hectic quickly and limited room to advance to high up position past department changes on low level

Does not require experience. Good to get your foot in the door with vet med.

Bad management. They DO NOT PROMOTE FROM WITHIN. People in supervisor and above positions are hired from outside. They make there lower level staff train their PMs and Supervisors. They will hire people into those positions with either little to no vet med experience or who have not worked in the field for 5-10 YEARS. You will be over worked every single day. You will have clients screaming and threatening you at least once a week. Most (not all) of the doctors do not care about the patients. They will actively complain if you ask them to see a walk in and will complain when there are appointments. There is a doctor who gets away with malpractice constantly regardless of how many people complain about them. Same doctor has no empathy for sick animals and will allow dying pets to wait. They do nothing if you complain about bullying or hostile work environments including in upper management. There is absolutely no good communication between any department and even between PM and support staff. You will have to learnt to have no empathy and compassion for the animals and clients or it will break your mental sanity.
