Pros

- Good Benefits, PTO is very competitive. - STD is particularly good. The process is easy and management is supportive. - Pay is good for the industry.

Cons

- Horribly managed in every area. Lack of support at every single level means that management is burnt out, and the company and employees suffer. - Overworked, underpaid, understaffed. The location layed a massive amount of people off, then begged for them back several months later. - Animal Welfare is a joke. It is rarely taken seriously, and many employees that work closely with the animals suffer from mental health issues as a result of that. - Tasks are taken on regardless of feasibility, which results in periods of excessive overtime and lack of support. - Promotions seem to be largely based off of who you know, not what skills you have.

Pros

None whatsoever. Everything they advertise as a pro has fineprint that renders it completely useless.

Cons

Wish I could have given zero stars, 1 star feels like lying. The most important thing is that they will mess you over without a second thought. For those who may have just started at the company, quit now before they mess you over. Don't be deceived by the benefits they advertise. Don't think you're valued because they will turn on you the second keeping you as part of the team inconveniences them. They don't pay fairly and blow off people who need to make a living. On top of trash pay, the work environment will have you hating what you do even while you're actively helping people. At PSCs, you're severely overworked and under a microscope. As an IOP, you're underappreciated and taken advantage of. The way they do business is very shady. They constantly have lawsuits against them, Google it. I saw the reviews and didn't listen because I thought a bad job was better than no job in this economy. I was so wrong. For your own mental health, and overall finances, don't work here. EVER. There are other jobs out there that pay fairly and aren't toxic. I found one and am so happy because I could have been trapped in a company going nowhere. Now I am paid what I'm worth and growing in my career, not just stuck choosing between being a phlebotomist, float or a high-stress supervisor. Just wait for a better job. I promise, the trash pay and stress are NOT worth the gas you'll waste driving all over the place even when you're not a float. Just don't do it.
