Not so great

Business Outlook

Pros

Any job is better than no job. Atmosphere in store okay. Dealing with clients and SOME associates.

Cons

Manager at store level very immature, condescending, not capable of her responsibilities. All of this created an unsavory environment. Young crew, they are lazy, preferring to chat amongst themselves while more mature toil.

Pros

Store support team is fantastic, integrity in every action, ethical, exceptional mentors and leaders, great human resource personnel, family-like atmosphere, takes care of employees from top to bottom, very strong bonds between all stores and their supervisors, CEO and Founder are genuine people and pet-lovers, promotion is an option for those who work hard.

Cons

I have not experienced any cons yet. If we steer clear of certain competitors and their antics, I believe our company will continue to thrive and grow exponentially every year. Great company full of great people!

Pros

I enjoyed being around the pets and helping the animals. It is sad!

Cons

Everything - I loved it at first - then the manager had us doing all the work - including his - never gave us updates or meetings. We repeated what we saw him doing at the front - he never kept the store stocked - I did all the cycle counts and inventory up to date. We did all the cleaning - stock room control-rotating filing-he was partial to the groomer (thought she was cute) she got away with everything and still does. Me and another girl worked around the clock sometimes 12 hour days and he would fudge the system so corporate wouldn't know. I finally called corporate to elaborate on some issues and they threw it back in my face and was confronted by my manager (who the complaint was about) and was dogged and looked down from management and corporate. So there was no open door policy. Corporate will be nice to you to your face and then treat you like a nobody. We opened that store and worked our butts off to be kicked out like an old bag of potato's. I planned on staying there. After I saw what kind of company they were and what type of people they put in management positions - I was over. Why do companies hire the stupid,lazy people for manager positions. It doesn't make sense. I could have made the store awesome but oh well. I hope they fold!
