Expect to live in financial deficit.

Pros

The experience was awesome. Working with animals is everyone’s childhood dream at one point right?

Cons

A healthy work\life balance is never going to be achieved here if they don’t realize they’re driving all their best employees away with low wages and even lower respect for the people that make the place run.

Love the job and the folks here

Pros

I honestly haven’t really ever worked at a place that’s been so motivating and fun. The entire team feels like a family and they treat you like family. Love the atmosphere and all around environment. Very different from where I was employed previously.

Cons

It’s a kind of Long Walk thru zoo to the work venues. But you get used to it so fast and the views and sounds of the animals and all of the various flora/fauna exotic flowers you can’t beat that. Quick paced learning while training but also really easy to apply once you do it a couple of times. They are always willing and there to help when you have a question. At least this is my experience.

good for people that like working outside and meeting lots of people

Cons

be prepared to have long days in the heat, uncooperative guests, and standing for seven hours at turnstiles.
