Pros

Liked to provide food, taking time off was always approved

Cons

It is a toxic work environment, that you will realize after working here a few months/weeks. If you do good hard work you will not be recognized, but they will love you for all non work related things to promote themselves like post selfies, instagram stories and take pictures with all the clients and pets. Post pictures and videos but your patients haven't been fed, medicated or walked for 10 hours great! Everything they speak about is fake, its toxic positivity where you can't speak your mind, you can't challenge them, you can't question their decisions, you are expected to drink the juice, keep quiet and smile. They protect all their doctors because they are afraid to lose them, the doctors are not held to the same standard the employees are. Culture, where is the "happy family" culture when the doctor is yelling and screaming at you, how great is it when your coworkers (and doctors) gossip about everyone? There are people with titles of Regional MD and Regional Managers who are unreachable, unsupportive and put the blame back on you when you reach out for help or support. HR protects people that should be terminated because they don't want to have a lawsuit, yet good people quit because its toxic, rewarding the people that do nothing is a poor example of good culture. Do you want selfies posted and silly videos or do you want a post GDV surgery monitored? Its all a show, everyone seems so nice but then you realize its a corporation and you have no idea where the company went that you initially signed up for.

Pros

Clients get to stay with their pets-this is so beneficial for helping the patients feel reassured and comforted during their stay.

Cons

The work ethic of the support staff is deplorable. There is chronic laziness throughout the staff (except for a few staff members who consistently work hard). VEG is known for hiring really young DVMs, and although they complete the 1 yr NERD program, many come out unprepared, are practicing medicine without continued mentorship, make grave medical errors, misdiagnose, and are incompetent surgeons.
