Animal Behavior College Reviews

Thank you for your valued feedback. While we strongly support the right of all employees to express their opinions, we seriously question the legitimacy of this review as there are items in it that are simply factually false. The poster claims that management publicly shames employees and that other employees can hear this occurring through open doors. Our company's workforce operates in an entirely remote environment and has for nearly 2 years since March 2020. Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to overhear discussions via open doors in a remote office environment. This suggests whoever wrote the review had no knowledge of our going remote, which means they are clearly not an employee or ex employee of ABC from long ago. What's more, even when we operated in a more traditional office environment, there was no public shaming as that type of behavior has never been who we are as a company. Next, the poster claims that ABC Admissions Counselors receive commissions. This is also completely false. All Admissions Counselors are paid at an hourly rate irrespective of the number of enrollments made. Therefore, again, we believe this poster is someone dishonestly claiming that they were an Admissions Counselor to publicly make untrue statements about ABC's pay practices. It is also inaccurate to state that Admission Counselors are encouraged to be dishonest to earn more money or generally increase enrollments by enrolling those with disabilities. We believe everyone has the right to advance their careers and pursue education. As an educational institution and in accordance with the law, ABC does not discriminate against persons with disabilities, nor does it deny student enrollment on the basis of disability alone, as that would be unlawful. Stating that the CEO does not know how the programs work is also a false statement. ABC's CEO is one of a half dozen people involved in creating programs and is thus completely aware of the content and how the program operates. The truth is that the process used to develop new courses takes several years worth of research, typically involving numerous people, to assess the public interest and implementation strategy. Then, it takes another 18-24 months to move forward with the creation and implementation efforts. Finally, the poster suggests that all positive reviews are fake and berates managers claiming they are "lifers." Many people have made their entire careers at ABC, which means that some folks must like working at ABC. Therefore, it makes zero sense to state that all reviews are fake or to demean the pride people have in their career at ABC. The truth is that not a single one of the positive reviews on here is fake. Publicly and internally, we pride ourselves in regularly receiving positive feedback regarding employment experiences at our company. For those interested in the facts, ABC started as a small family business and now has 11 team members who have been with us for 10-15 years, four employees who have been with us for 16-21 years, two employees for 22-25 years, and two employees for 25+ years. We believe that retaining employees who stay for decades and continue to recommend new hires speaks eloquently for our culture as a company and who we are as an organization. While we understand not every person will be satisfied with their employment at ABC, we have many outstanding long-term employees who have shared their positive experiences and offered constructive criticism to us by providing truthful and accurate information. Company reviews are discretionary and direct personal opinions of work experience. ABC does not guide reviews to portray only positive feedback, nor are reviews pre-approved by ABC. And to be clear, ABC certainly does not pay staff for posting reviews. We always welcome rational and legitimate criticism of our company. We are a school run by human beings which means there is always room for improvement, and not everyone will always be happy with our business decisions. We know that honest feedback of any nature, positive or negative, can present a learning experience for us. However, flat-out falsehoods and/or commentary made with an intention to damage our business is something we believe is worth responding to publicly. We remain committed to offering employment opportunities for animal lovers all across the country and continue offering valued educational opportunities for students.
