Pros

The interview and on-boarding experience for my current position at the ASPCA was very thorough and extensive. The People's Team and Director / High Level staff where were helpful and engaging.

Cons

Paperwork is extensive and process is pretty lengthy.

Very toxic

Pros

funds do actually go towards helping animals

Cons

Most people in management are wildly insecure because they don't know what they are doing. People play favorites and there is a "mean girl" mentality. I worked there for 2.5 years and I've never experienced such levels of unprofessionalism. Highly toxic work environment with really unskilled Senior Managers and Directors who will do anything to make sure upper management doesn't find out how little they are actually doing. My manager arrived to work everyday between 11 and 11:30 am, when everyone else is expected to be at their desks by 9:30am. Honestly it's just a gross culture.

Pros

Amazing mission, incredibly passionate co-workers.

Cons

CEO completely disconnected from what's happening in the trenches and doesn't seem to care. His only interest is in keeping the BOD exactly where he wants them so he doesn't get fired. Horrible, self-serving mid-level managers who don't know what they're doing, have no experience and are willing to throw anyone under the bus to save their jobs. "Do as I say not as I do" attitude. Rules don't apply to favorites. Unclear department goals and total lack of transparency or communication. Hypocritical Core Values culture. They espouse such caring but show little of it to their employees. I've seen it over and over again.
