Pros

Getting to work with animals, enjoy working with my coworkers. Also I really enjoy working my branch manager.

Cons

Few hours available, low pay, most branches are union, some aren't, I disagree with what head office has to say about some cases - seems to go completely against what they advertise themselves to be. The low pay is ridiculous considering everything that goes into this job (animal care, can be high stress, rehabilitating some animals, lots of reception and paper work) to be paid a bit over minimum wage starting seems kinda crazy - and it takes years to work up from there. I love the team that I work with, but I dislike the way that the provincial office decides to handle quite a few situations.

Pros

You know what’s great? They don't keep me on too short of a leash here. No, here they let me roam. I’ve got just enough slack to dig up some trouble but not enough to bury myself.

Cons

Promotions are dangled in front of you like treats and create a dog-eat-dog, competitive environment.
