      Pros

      Decent pay and schedule, typical for a retail environment. Company cares about the animals they care in the stores more than they do anything else.

      Cons

      District managers rule by scare tactics but have no real ideas of their own to help or promote the business. Surveys are given the most importance, but many of the results are false. High scores are ignored and praise is given to the districts with the highest scores.
