Pros

The organization is dedicated to helping animals as much as possible. Dakin is constantly implementing new enrichment and medical practices to improve the environment for the animals.

Cons

The management care more about the animals than the employees. Employees are treated unequally, and expected to go above and beyond without being acknowledged or compensated. No room for growth whatsoever. They would rather hire outside than promote anyone.

Pros

it was fun most of the time

Cons

too many white people work here and they primarily serve people of color. the company culture is not one where they take intersectionality into account. on top of that the class divide makes it difficult for some staff members, especially in upper management to recognize how their company's culture is extremely damaging and draining on the staff that work there who are people of color. same goes for trans issues as well.
