Pros

Work with animals Good customers. A job.

Cons

Management is horrible. No one is there to help you. Retaliation is horrible, alot of backstabbing. You will not get promoted. Someone will pin the blame on you for their mistakes. Horrible time management. Store manager doesn't do anything. Pay is one of the lowest in retail. Promises are made not kept. Last resort place to work. If they don't like you they cut your hours to nothing because they don't have the audacity to tell you to your face.

Pros

If you have experience they can pay very well considering the size of the company. Depending on which store you are in, they can be pretty good at fostering a good environment and culture.

Cons

Company is primarily focused on sales and not customer experience. So expect a lot of metrics and hounding customers. Company is trying to be technologically forward but continues to neglect to invest in the technology. So there’s updates every week crashes every week with no communication around it.
