Camp Bow Wow Operations Department Employee Reviews

What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

They come up with creative ways to increase revenue and improve pet parent experiences

Review from Operations Dept

They honestly care about the animals' welfare

Review from Operations Dept

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

They all need to be replaced with more mature and professional people.

Review from Operations Dept

I found it unfair that they sent me for a working interview, but turned me down for no reason

Review from Operations Dept

Leadership team could be better at being more consistent with policies as it seems they are still trying to figure out what works best, but often seem to change direction based on isolated incidents and knee-jerk reactions rather than logic.

Review from Operations Dept

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

I get a discount on vet visits

Review from Operations Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

I worked really hard and took care of dogs and did a 100% job, I was written up wrongfully and they made me quit. I never got my tips also.

Review from Operations Dept

I'm paid 11/hour to often work multiple peoples shifts, Im scheduled more days than I requested I be limited to due to my health and am often told to "stick it out" when I voice my concerns. Some days we have 50 dogs in our bigs yard, one of whom jumps the barrier and I get scolded for rotating them

Review from Operations Dept

The pay is just above minimum wage but the job can be very physically demanding and requires great attention to detail and time management skills, not to mention the responsibility of keeping a large quantity of dogs safe.

Review from Operations Dept

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

My team is awesome, they roll with the punches, always willing to help out and step up, and learn. They listen to eachother and respect eachothwr. All shift leads get along great and communicate well.

Review from Operations Dept

My coworkers are phenomenal. We really feel like a team, bonded by our struggle against management and problem dogs. We work hard together against the clock when we are understaffed, and at the end of the day we can sigh in relief that we made it.

Review from Operations Dept

Everyone is really friendly and wants everyone else to succeed

Review from Operations Dept

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Nobody listens to any concerns.

Review from Operations Dept

They had no team work, communication or kindness . Other people need a chance to learn other things too, too much favoritism and the assistant manager needs to get fired Sara Cooper.

Review from Operations Dept

Everyone is fake nice to you

Review from Operations Dept

Coworkers are often appointed as shift leaders with no actual managerial skills, so this often results in favoritism, drama, and bad attitudes.

Review from Operations Dept

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

Not much, honestly. We all love the dogs, but we are often too stressed by management , understaffing, and crowding in our big dog yard to really enjoy our time with the fur babies.

Review from Operations Dept

Everyone there truly cares about the animals

Review from Operations Dept

The most positive aspect of the culture is the genuine love for the dogs in our care.

Review from Operations Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

The new management and teenagers and young adults needs supervision , discipline and rules.

Review from Operations Dept

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

The manager was nice person

Review from Operations Dept

I really felt like it would be a supportive and diverse workplace. I was looking forward to many days hanging out with the dogs in manageable groups and doing the enrichments. Cleaning poop cans was a small price to pay for all those snuggles.

Review from Operations Dept

They had an hour-long working interview so you could see if working at CBW was actually something that interested you

Review from Operations Dept

It was a very informal and quick and the interviewer seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me, not just my work history or education.

Review from Operations Dept

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Nothing it wasn’t hard

Review from Operations Dept

What makes you most happy at work?

Outlook Reviews

The rare moments when I get to hang out with our teacup dogs. I'm more of a big dog person usually, but there's nothing like the calm of the teacups after two hours with forty big dogs.

Review from Operations Dept

Getting to interact with all the dogs, especially the ones that are starting to recognize me

Review from Operations Dept

The dogs! Interacting with our happy campers is the best part of the job.

Review from Operations Dept

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

The owners need to be retrained. They are terrible to the employees and talk down about our clients calling some of them crazy.
