Pros

If you like animals and educating people on how to properly care for them, you'll like this job. You get to see dogs and puppies all day, and if you work in pet care you get to be responsible for caring for the small animals. My favorite thing to do was to get fish for people. If you work with a good mix of people and enjoy being with your coworkers, the job can be a lot of fun.

Cons

If you have a crappy manager, the job will not be as fun because you get to deal with someone who isn't helpful and schedules you all wrong. Also, since it's retail, you get all that customer b.s. too.

Pros

Dynamic environment with good opportunities in various departments

Cons

Leadership cuts at store level led to overworked environment and that had a profound impact on employees' ability to keep up minimum standards of quality and safety, especially in the salons.
