Pros

-closed door pharmacy -some free snacks

Cons

-Rain or shine 3 block walks from facility to parking lot -constant layoffs due to budget cuts which adds to the slave drive in fear of being let go -saw an ex employee try to file a formal complaint that was never looked into due to hr person being "laid off" -over work and underpaid -un-realistic standards and everyone is held to a different level regardless of position -claims to be a family however allow leads to berate, belittle, and degrade subordinate with absolutely no consequences even after several years and complaints -aware of toxic environment and never say or do anything -won't even try to stop escalating altercations amongst employees -everyone in upper management adds to the hostility when gossiping to each other about others "private" convos aka if someone gets talked to sooner or later everyone will know why -Dont offend george or you'll be blacklisted until you quit -several articles online about him & the toxic culture he advocates for

Pros

Small company that is growing and very successful. Each employee can have influence and be impactful. Great work life balance with leadership support, both professionally and personally. Every day you get to help care for pet patients.

Cons

As a small company, everything you do (and don’t do) is transparent. Fast growth of the company means a lot of changes and adjustments. Some thrive in this environment, others do not. It’s retail pharmacy, so it can be tough sometimes.

Pros

-Meaningful mission. We provide life-saving compounded medications for animals in need which makes what you're selling feel genuinely worthwhile. -Real opportunity to grow. There are multiple examples of promotions across the organization. If you prove you're a hard worker and a true asset to the team you will be rewarded for it. -Remote work flexibility that is hard to find elsewhere

Cons

-Fast-paced growing company where things can change quickly. You need to be comfortable with shifting responsibilities and adapting on the fly. -Processes are still being built out as the company scales so if you need everything perfectly defined this might not be the right fit. That said if you enjoy figuring things out and building something it can also be one of the more exciting parts of the job.
