BC SPCA reviews about "coworker"

Lots of administrative work Old office space, not much natural light for most of the offices, lots of shared offices Gossip

The organization heads consistently mess up the budget, they are constantly hiring more positions for provincial office with huge salaries, but pay the people that are actually working with the animals very little. They don't replace staff in the shelters or hospitals when people quit. There is a lot of guilting employees to work harder or stay for OT to care for animals to make up for not enough staff. I think it is probably a different experience for people in roles that don't deal directly with animals.

Top heavy leadership that seems out of touch with realities of work for their own staff (even in their own departments). Junior members of staff expected to carry the weight where management is lacking or absent. Lack of opportunity for advancement in entry/mid levels is apparent as soon as you step through the door. Ambitious, but many ideas are put forward with no follow through. Org is not immune from the non profit silent culture of overwork and seems to prefer not to acknowledge it. Shelter staff very underpaid.

compassion fatigue, poor pay, poor mental health support, not much upward mobility

Not making Living Wage, Expected to work OT without pay, emotional and physical burnout,
