Pros

Advocate for animals in our care. Recruiting, training and developing career driven individuals with a passion for animals, educating the community on solutions for their pets and giving back to the community and rescue partners. Benefits program. Employee discount on proprietary brands. Ally program.

Cons

Work/life balance. Store labor hours provided for weekly workload. Upper management training is nonexistent. Pricing changes are rampant- poorly planned and executed by corporate offices.

Pros

If you have experience they can pay very well considering the size of the company. Depending on which store you are in, they can be pretty good at fostering a good environment and culture.

Cons

Company is primarily focused on sales and not customer experience. So expect a lot of metrics and hounding customers. Company is trying to be technologically forward but continues to neglect to invest in the technology. So there’s updates every week crashes every week with no communication around it.
