Pros

My managers were exceptionally nice and the best management I have worked under that's for sure. Loved early shifts and getting off early while having the rest of the day to either take a nap or relax. Met great fellow employees who turned into great friends.

Cons

Overworked, under paid. Appreciation of work could be better. Promotion was denied because of one opinion by the district manager. Trucks wore me out some of the time. Fellow stockers were lazy.

Pros

Work with pets, earn tips and commission.

Cons

Corporate salon means no logic and reason to the rules and they can change day by day. Pushed to churn as many grooms out as possible instead of do quality work. No clear communication from management and no positive feedback from management, only beratings and lectures and threats to being replaced.
