Great "no stress" job!

Store manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Managing a Petsense store is like running your own little business. You are given the tools to create your own destiny. Of course there are guidelines, and management is always there to keep you on track.

Cons

The cash register and back office systems leave a lot to be desired. Being a new company, you would think there would be the very latest technology. No so..

Store manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

We get to interact with Pet Parents of all species. With the pets best interests in mind, we can guide the Pet Parents to the best products and price range to benefit the babies.

Cons

Great environment for growth and advancement, for those with good work ethics. Our Mentors, and Senior Management always want each of us to succeed, and give us the opportunities to do just that. It's then up to us to grasp those opportunities.

Good place for hard workers

Store manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Very casual, fun store environment. People who shop for their pets are happy people. Flexible scheduling, good coworkers, relatable management.

Cons

Technology is a little dated and can be hard to use for people without at least average computer skills. Training and development for the "soft skills" is not really there. You will learn how to sell dog food, but probably won't get a ton of guidance on improving leadership skills.
