Pros
At least I'm employed? Wearing jeans each day is still pretty good. Having the facilities like the cafe, gym and daycare on campus has always been nice
Cons
Where to begin? It breaks my heart to see what's become of this company. Fear based management and incompetence run rampant. The CEO is reactive instead of pro-active, creates initiatives like a humming bird with ADHD and then throws a tantrum when they don't workout. One idea snowballs into multiple projects that waste associates time due to lower level management hearing "I like blue" from the CEO and suddenly everything that comes from PetSmart needs to be blue. Spineless and terrified to lose their jobs, there is no leadership. No mentoring. Amazing associates have either been let go or quit without looking back. The few of us that hold out hope for the old days of a culture you could be proud of are dwindling daily. I'd cry if I wasn't so burnt out. The days were I worked hard to make a difference have been replaced by absolute apathy because just don't care anymore. This place, a place I used to take pride in working at, has just become a paycheck and a way to pay the bills until I find something better.
