high stress, good team - Veterinary Assistant Veterinary Emergency Service Employee Review

As long as you can open your eyes, and ears to learn. Put in the time outside of work studying. It'll pay off.

Employees are not treated with the same respect.

-Great group of ER doctors and specialists; -Good support staff (although some are overly confident); -Reasonable work-life balance; -Good case load, and good variety of cases; -Great collaboration on cases between ER doctors and specialists

-Compensation; low, which is expected, given there is a veterinary school in close proximity -Benefits: low CE benefits; medical insurance benefits aren't great; no dental/vision coverage; I elected not to participate in 401K due to low salary (and barely making ends meet); -Practice owner has stated he is aware of paying veterinarians below industry standard - but rationalizes that "everyone wants to live in Madison;" -
