Pros

Pay was average No Christmas Rush Easy training program Variable Hours Dealing with customers and their pets was the best part of the job.

Cons

Definitely not a career position. There is very little upward mobility unless you are highly favored by district manager. I received no positive reinforcement about the strides my store was taking in exceeding sales plan and pet services budget. CLI, the customer loyalty index was shoved down your throat everyday, and you had to hit the numbers or pay with a required work schedule.

Pros

Could be fun, it really depends on the manager, location and your temperament. There are busy days and slow days.

Cons

The hours are pretty much up to the management. They paste together schedules as though it was pre-k arts and craft.
