Pros

From the CEO, Sean McNicholas, all the way down the line this company has left such a positive impression upon me. They actively work to put their "values" into practice and keep their employees' best interest in mind. Can't say enough good things about this organization!

Cons

Working at zoos in the summer months can be brutal due to extreme temps.
