I am thinking of leaving my job and it's scary but I think it's what I have to do. I currently work for a corporate and I have felt disrespected in many ways throughout the 5 years I have been qualified and been with the practice. I am currently doing a surgical masters and the corporate is paying for it, but if I leave I have to give it back.
They have recently increased my salary by 10% too because I discovered someone working fewer hours than me was earning more and I threatened to leave. ⬇️

Look for another job. If you find one, see if you can negotiate them to buy out your contract with your current employer. I’ve seen that done. Might work for your case!

Update: I am moving to an independent practice and they will be paying for my Certificate!

I'd say that ( if you think that you CAN push through and stay). DO so - Let them pay for your schooling. After 6 months, move on.

Corporate offices unfortunately are the majority of practices. Gone are the days of the 'vet owned' practices.
So I'll be honest, I (personally ) DO NOT prefer the corporate facilities for a myriad of personal reasons. They 're too touchy for some to go into it, but trust me, I SO understand.
After 22+ years in Vet Med myself, I may do something alltogether different... That being said, I don't have student loan issues.
Additionally, and obviously Vets have MANY more options than techs. You can go ANY where with your talents. I'd personally say that you need to do what benefits YOU The most.... AnD Please keep aware of compassion fatigue. I have lost 2 very lovely people in my life to it-
Most people are not aware , But NOT one more Vet/ Tech Please ... Yours...Kat

Hi Kat. Unfortunately, in order for them to pay for my masters, I had to sign an agreement that says if I leave within the first year of completing my masters, I have to pay back 75% of it, in the 2nd year 50% and the 3rd year 25%.
I would have to stay another 5 years with the company if I want to not pay back...
But thank you for the honest opinion and heartfelt comments

Well That stinks.... well I will empathize with you... I do hope that there is an alternative that might present itself. If it IS a corporate, perhaps a different locale ?? Perhaps you could stick with the firm and change the hospital in which you work. Perhaps?? Best - Kat

However, I don't think I can move past the direspect.
I also need a bigger surgical load than I do where I am at the moment.
But I can't afford to pay the Certificate on my own.
Any suggestions? And what salary would you expect for a vet surgeon that has been qualified for 5 years and is currently doing a surgical masters degree?
Thank you!

Hi 👋🏻 Would love some support here - looking to build out a bonus structure for a Sales Engagement Mgr role - it isn't a typical sales role - this person will be closing deals but not necessarily securing leads. If they will be scoring leads, it will be organic via conferences, partnerships. Of course, we want to encourage and incentivize this person. Potentially giving then an extra 20-50k bonus potential. How do I build this out? Any suggestions or examples would be super helpful. Thank you!!
