If you are looking to advance your career, it will stop here
|
This organization will not pay you well, will make you work harder than you have ever worked, and avoid confrontation. They pride themselves on being this wonderful place and make their employees believe that they are lucky to be there and then work them to death. They also aren't interested in training you and expect perfection from day one. People also tend to stay at the zoo forever and so advancement is hard to achieve here. Expect to work Saturdays, evenings, early mornings, forever and when you do advance, expect only a little increase in pay. The only pro is seeing animals.

Great place to work
|
I never have any issues that weren’t solved with a simple conversation. I loved working there and I moved away to get more experience to hopefully return working there someday.

Fun and engaging workplace with many opportunities for learning
|
My job consisted of a lot of physical labor, including cleaning and disinfecting enclosures, moving items, creating enrichment, participating in training, and working on varying projects both independently and with other keepers. I also was able to see the vet clinic and participate in some triage care and checkups. I learned so much from this internship and absolutely loved everyone I worked with and the work environment. I also met so many amazing people that I still keep in contact with! Other than some of the physical work, I think the hardest part of the job was dealing with serious medical or behavioral issues with some of the animals.

Supportive team workplace, professional, fun, happy animals
|
CMZ will always be my forever home, and I cherish getting to work so close to/with some rare animals! I always felt loved like family and supported in almost every way. Managers were very supportive, and CEO cultivates unity and personal growth.
Some positions are unique and do not have much room for advancement, but lateral movements within the company can keep you in a rare culture you will not find anywhere else.

Best place in the world
|
This zoo holds an extremely special place in my heart. The culture of this zoo is incredibly unique. There is equal love, respect, and kindness shown to the employees, the visitors, and the animals all of which is unmatched by any other business I have ever known of.

Changed Work Environment
|
Used to be an amazing work environment! Management puts conflicts on the back burner & has favorites. Also, avoid ticket booths unless you love drama.

awesome place to be
|
I loved volunteering at the Zoo, it was the highlight of my life at the time and I really do wish I could go back. I learned so much about animals and it was awesome to be able to share that information with the guests.
