Pros

Flexibility in scheduling, getting to chat with pet owners, being around animals. Learn alot about taking care of pet's health. Good benefits for full-time employees.

Cons

Low pay. Promotions to assistant manager positions do come up, but the low pay makes it difficult to survive. Back-breaking work in many departments with little help.

Pros

15% off whole store 50% proprietary brands Petting animals Friendly customers Almost never declines requested days off

Cons

Must have min one weekend day available No room for growth very hard to become full time Must make requests a month in advance even thought the schedule come out Thurs/fri for the following week, shifts can be unpredictable Coworkers with seniority have “better” shifts Scrubbing tanks may have you armpit deep They say everyone is equal and gets paid the same but not everyone put in the same effort, ex: some people don’t do pet care at all or never close or never work truck days
