Pros

Decent pay for what little experience you actually need. If you're determined to learn, plenty of space to grow and get promotions.

Cons

All depends on your staff and other management. If you have a team who doesn't care or other managers who dislike their job, you're picking up the slack for them, which can either help or handicap you.

Pros

Pay Benefits Discount Learn about animals and how to care for them

Cons

Burn out fast (less than a year) Enough toxicity in 1 store to fill the entire city it operates in False bravado among co workers (cognitive dissonance) If they don’t like you they’ll punish you through the schedule until you quit Make promises that they don’t intend to keep The entire experience was a crock When you finally burn out from the bad environment and rude customers they’ll ostracize you and throw you in the dumpster because now you’re useless or a broken cog. They absolutely don’t care about you or the animals - the business comes first. Lots of pretentious co workers that think they know everything that have been there for 5 or more years - which is exactly where the toxicity comes from. People that should have been fired years ago are still there and will remain there long after you leave. Nothing will ever change so I left. There’s TONS of favoritism and nepotism it will take you back to Roman times. There’s nothing modern or progressive about PetSmart. The uneducated work here.

Pros

- 15% Discount on everything - New associate tier lets you rack up points fairly easy - Taking care of animals leads you into other animal handling / welfare jobs

Cons

- Company constantly cuts hours - Management makes or breaks a place* - *Treated unfairly if you aren't management's favorite - You won't get the hours you request - ALK isn't even a leader, you're essentially the errand person
