What makes you most happy at work?

My colleagues and my patients.

What are some of the best things about your team?

My team is perfect, they all work very hard as they understand that we are in this together. They have experience and understand how challenging and draining this job can be.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I would feel better about my compensation if my wage wasn't almost less than half the living wage in my city. I work hard every single day yet could make more stocking shelves in a grocery store with 0 qualifications.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

I cannot speak in regards to my company, but at my clinic my Manager is positive, she takes amazing care of us and advocates for each and every staff member to receive appropriate recognition and compensation for the efforts they put in.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

I love my clinic manager, I feel that upper management however does not care about us at all. They have no idea what we do on a day to day basis aside from whatever it costs to run a clinic. they're not dealing with clients, sick injured or dying pets. They do not understand this job.
