Pros

There are some people who are smart, kind, and really looking to change the industry. The clinics are clean and open, and the business model is great in theory. Opportunity for scrappy work in a start-up feel.

Cons

The leadership doesn't tolerate mistakes or people who take a while to catch on. They make reactive decisions based on anecdotal feelings versus facts, and make changes quickly without thinking through repercussions. It makes for messy operations and an overworked HR team. Because they struggle with hiring, most employees are doing more than one person's job worth of work and are not valued for the contributions they make to the business. In an attempt to be agile, the leadership pivots quickly to the point of whiplash, which makes it difficult to support initiatives that change constantly.

Pros

Pet care discounts only for your own pet.

Cons

The work was completely draining and exhausting. Asking for a raise felt like putting a target on your back because management seemed determined to find any excuse to push people out. Employees stayed silent, kept concerns to themselves, and avoided speaking up about ideas or problems out of fear of being unfairly fired.
