Toxic management

Pros

Caring for homeless/injured animals along side some of the most dedicated, hard working people. There are many people working towards the same goal who really love and care about the animals

Cons

The management practices are absolutely appalling. If anyone speaks up about any of the unfair and unprofessional behaviour, they should prepare to lose their a job even if they are speaking to the HR person. Managers are notorious for firing people they don't like and showing ridiculous favoritism to people they do like. Never before have I seen favoritism to this extent. The favored staff can be belligerent, rude, lazy, absent, break any rule, complain constantly, belittling to others and smoke more then they work without being disciplined but the employees who haven't been granted membership into the cool kids club are treated like they don't exist or endure constant criticism in which they are blamed unfairly. Managers have no real management training but will protect their positions fiercely. They have been known to encourage employees to quit before they fire them and also make a regular habit of firing people who have worked for the organization for several years or more without any prior complaints/warnings.

Pros

Friendly staff, nice new facility at Papago Park.

Cons

Salary and benefits are not as good as MCACC. Feels like Upper management/Directors/HR doesn't seem to care about the staff or retention. Very difficult to effect change and improvement. Many people are stuck in their ways. It felt like Managemeny/Directors implemented student teaching without any significant discussion with employees - no additional compensation for increased work and responsibilities that was not in original job description.

Pros

- Working with sick/injured animals. - Allows time to hangout animals. - Nonprofit/Community resource aid. - Company truly cares of wellbeing of animals. - Career growth opportunities. - Consistent schedule.

Cons

- Biggest issue is management: --- High turnover rate in position. --- Extreme micromangement. -- - Little/No trust (spying through security cams). --- Actively discourages teamwork with other departments (EX: Adoptions), creating uncomfortable interdepartmental relations and will scold you if trying to have a proper rapport with fellow staff who you work closely on a daily basis. --- Take on tedious tasks of other departments without proper compensation. - Constantly dealing with incredibly difficult customers daily that turn hostile. - Discourages employees to speak to each other regarding wages since only pay ~13 - 15/hr and doesn't list wages on website. --- Company overall cares more about donor funds/relations (and new building) than the wellbeing of actual staff who does day to day labor. --- Rampant employee burnout w/low morale.
