- Toxic, out-of-touch management that trickles all the way down
- Greed. Ever since the purchase by private equity the name of the game is KPIs to maximise profit which will be twisted and used to deny pay rises
- Terrible pay. Significantly lower than other corporates like Greencross, Apiam, and even independents. This is a huge multinational company with billionaire investors but can't cough up $1/ph pay rises
- High turnover. The only people they're attracting is the inexperienced trying to get their foot in the door, and international graduates who need visa sponsorship. Meanwhile, there's an outward brain drain of experience to competitors. VP can't even run training courses without contracting external clinicians because there's no in-network specialists anymore, resulting in substandard care
- The clinical directors are dinosaurs. Don't join if you want to upskill or practise good medicine. VP has no interest in your career development and is copying the Our Vet and EBGames business model: push subscriptions and overpriced product at the expense of clinical excellence. New grads are better off going to Greencross with a structured training program
