Pros

I like the people I worked with in my own hospital but that is it.

Cons

The company is beyond un ethical to say the least. The majority of the problems stem from the ROD's and their support managers. They lie and munipulate to get what they want. They over charge clients to the extreme and do you think that the actual workers in the hospitals ever see a dime of that. Not even close to it. You will be lucky if you get a fifty cent raise in three or four years. Unless your morrels are like that of a con man and VCA then beware, for this is not a great company to work for. So concider this a warning to stay clear away of VCA Antech.

Pros

This company offers many opportunities for doctors and techs to grow in their careers. They provide tons of support and they've been making HUGE changes to veterinary medicine on a whole. I have never known another company to offer so many benefits and perks for staff (especially techs), and they're even making lots of effort to invest in the veterinary receptionists-the front line associates of the hospital. They're also making great strides to acknowledge some of the feedback we've had for many years. They're savvy and smart, making business decisions that build on a company that will be around a long time (and has.)

Cons

There have been times where transparency and communication are lacking, and sometimes to the point where hospital-level employees feel left out or unheard. Some bigger topics like onboarding and navigating what support comes from where could be more clear. It feels like they've been fusing on new concepts/policies/features to the company, making it feel like a clunky machine rather than building something new and streamlined. Maybe it's in the works, but how do we know down here?
