Pros
If you are a cashier, the job is much like being a cashier anywhere else–long hours on your feet, ringing people up and answering phones. However, it is easy work and the systems PETCO uses are simple to learn. If you are an animal specialist, each day is a little different as you are constantly tending to companion animal enclosures, answering customer questions, and helping stock product. I found this job to be interesting and rewarding in the sense that we got to make sure the best possible care was given to the animals and the customers.
Cons
There is no overtime, so if you find yourself working 8 hours plus one minute, you better believe somebody will be making you clock out. I was part-time so I don't know about the benefits insurance-wise.
