Pros
I worked for JustFoodForDogs for three years in a variety of positions. I started out as a part-time retail employee and that was a great job—plenty of dogs to pet, awesome coworkers and customers, and great perks for my own dog—but I was sucked in pretty fast by the company’s mission and potential and I ended up creating a career for myself here. With enough initiative and hard work, anyone could do the same and be rewarded by knowing they’re making a difference in the lives of so many animals. JFFD’s leaders are among the most passionate and driven people I’ve ever met—it’s always frustrating to work at some place where the executives don’t work nearly as hard as the hourly employees and that’s decidedly NOT the case here. Everyone is determined to succeed in the company’s goal of feeding real food to as many dogs as possible and if you share that dream, you will be welcomed with open arms.
Cons
Like all young companies, the pace is lightning quick and change is frequent but, just as characteristically, the opportunities for learning are endless.
