The Fort Worth Zoo is a great place for a starter job before moving elsewhere.

Systems Administrator (Former Employee)
Fort Worth, TX

I worked at Fort Worth Zoo

ProsBeing able to walk around the park on stressful days is a great way to alleviate stress! As a first job out of college, it was a great place to learn information technology and get my hands dirty. I was able to implement many ideas simply because the systems administration done prior was not standardized and was lacking. Also, the majority of the staff at the park was great to work with.

ConsSince the Zoo is a non-profit, salaries are entry level. Also, there isn't any career development in place. Being forced to "volunteer" at certain annual events (Zoo Run, Boo at the Zoo) was a drag.

Advice to Senior ManagementGive the Human Resources staff pay raises- they are great to work with!

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
