AHS Review

Pros

Working at AHS has been so fun! It is great to work alongside individuals/teams who share the same passions and ideas. The organization truly cares about its employees and goes out of the way to provide a variety of staff enrichment activities. While we are spread all over the valley, its very easy to get on a one-on-one basis with staff from different departments and locations.

Cons

The organization has and is undergoing a tremendous amount of change and sometimes it can be a bit difficult to follow its new direction. However, I think it was time for things to change for the better even if there are growing pains. Given that it is an animal shelter, it can be a bit emotionally draining at times, but that is to be expected.

Poorly Managed, Toxic Environment.

Pros

Amazing work for the animals and opportunities to get creative with new programs.

Cons

Toxic upper management. All of the company's effort is put towards customer experience with complete disregard for the exhausted and overworked staff. The company continues to demand new programs and push the already overworked staff beyond the breaking point. The level of care provided to the animals is suffering and communications between departments and ranks is non-existent. The staff has no idea what the organization is doing or where it is going. Management threatens your job if you cannot keep up with the demands, which have quadrupled in the past year. Staff and middle management crying in the halls, offices, and parking lot is common-place. New policies and programs are demanded by the executive team with no notice or explanation. Poor decisions are being made, especially regarding medical policy.
