Ventajas
We have a team environment where people work together to meet our challenges. I've never had such committed colleagues who are passionate, professional, and know their stuff. This work isn't for everyone because a lot of people think that supporting the mission is enough but what I appreciate is that there is accountability and the people who do their jobs well are recognized and there is no fear to part ways from people who aren't doing their jobs. Our leaders pay attention when people don't treat others with respect and I'm so grateful for that. Other managers and I are really being heard with our concerns and that makes it all easier. The animals return so much love and appreciation to us and we have the best and most generous volunteers who lighten our load.
Desventajas
It's fast paced and it's a 24 hour operation so things never slow down and you learn to adapt. Some departments have been dragging things down but that is being fixed. Our customers expect a lot from us but they are experiencing some hard times with their animals
