Pros
If you're lucky, you'll get a good group.
Cons
One empty promise after the other. I've been here two years and still have not been sent to training to become a groomer. I'm a bather and have been holding down the salon for a year after the salon leader left. I do more than I'm paid for because a friend taught me how to groom before I came here. Have not sent me to training as promised so I have a chance to make more money. I asked for Sundays off (I've been here a year by myself) and they won't do it because the salon has to be open on weekends. But they haven't even had the job posted for another groomer in months. As for commission pay. That is bull too unless you're willing to break your back to make it. Remember, groomers at mom and pop shops aren't bathing and drying their own dogs. They just cut hair. At Petco, you do it all. Crazy thing is at mom and pop shops, you still make more money.
