Pros

Working with animals. Softer side of sales and mostly friendly customers... it's a pet store. Decent discounts that add up when you keep pets yourself. Decent pay.

Cons

Lack of resources, time, and personnel. Poor time management. Unreasonable goals and time constraints. Poor feedback from district managers. Poor feedback from store managers. No compensation for going the extra mile... unless you reeeally enjoy a pat on the back. Little possibility for advancement unless you obtain a certain position. Becomes impossible to move up without a transfer when managers become comfortable with their position. Inventory technology is archaic at best. Getting a raise was an act of Congress.
