Petco reviews

Too many changes too quickly. You cant change everything every year. Think through the things you want to change instead of just throwing ideas out there in hopes they will work. After reviewing other peoples reviews I see that almost everyone at store level agrees that there isnt enough time in the day to do what is expected. Listen to the people that are making the money for the company...not everything goes as you see it in your perfect little world. Some weeks people just need a little guidance others the customers need you to hold their hand through the entire store. You cant do that and help everyone with only the payroll to have a cashier and a manager.

Unethical Management. After working with Petco for a little over a year, I was terminated due to a felony conviction that is over 10 years old. My performance reviews were outstanding. In fact my criminal record only became an issue because of an application that I filled out in connection with a promotion for which I was recommended. Management at the store and my customers were all more than happy with my performance. I gave Petco permission to do a background check when I was hired but they never did one until I applied for the promotion. I never lied about nor attempted to hide my criminal past. Petco would have known about the background all along if the background check that they asked permission to do was done. I did my time for the conviction long ago. Apparently I paid my debt to society but that is somehow not enough for Petco. I was suspended for about a week with no pay or compensation then terminated with no severance pay.
