Pros
Pay was good on both hourly and commission rate for a groomer. As a groomer, schedule was also somewhat flexible in my store which was good since I was also a student at the time. HR is excellent about getting in touch with too if there is a problem with co-workers being unprofessional as well
Cons
Overbooking was a constant at my store. They fill you up with as many appointments as they can every hour and fail to consider the size and temperament of the dog. They also push for you to groom dogs that you may not be comfortable grooming despite saying that you have the right to refuse service. when the season is slow, some groomers may have a full sheet of appointments while other may have none due to favoritism with managers and store drama. also your grooms are constantly interrupted by nails trims putting you behind.
