      I worked at PetMeds full-time

      Flexible schedule, availability to earn a raise, great people (other receptionists, techs, Dr, hospital admin), furry patients!

      Cons

      Long shifts, low pay at hire

      Pros

      As someone who has worked in the marketing team for several years the previous reviews were from individuals who were not a culture fit, so of course they are going to leave salty reviews. We had a change in leadership and in truth we have grown immensely because of it.

      If you're someone who wants to make contributions, build a solid foundation of experience at a unique company you will do well. The key is to never have the "that's not my job" attitude. We're all in this together.

      This is the type of company where you can learn a variety of aspects of the business and own the work you contribute.

      Cons

      None - this is a very stable company. Plus the new facility is amazing which seems to have increased overall morale

      I have been working at PetMeds full-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      I can't think of any thing positive to say about this company

      Cons

      This is a dictatorship environment to work for. They micro manage everything you do. You are treated like kindergarderns. Upper managment treats you poorly. The training is the worst I have ever experienced. The CEO walks around when you see him with a scowl on his face. Doesn't even acknowledge your presence.

      Advice to Management

      Start to appreciate your employee's. Without them, you have nothing. Just because we answer phones, doesn't make any less valuable to the company. Would be nice to be treated with a little respect. You might also want to look at your pay scale. Very low

      Thank you for the review and your comments. We are planning a relocation to Delray Beach later this year, as we have outgrown our current facilities. While any change can be difficult, we are VERY... More

      I have been working at PetMeds full-time (More than 10 years)

      Pros

      Family atmosphere, financially stable. Most management and many employees have been with this company for many many years. Upwards of ten years! It's not glamorous, but very profitable and stable with many benefits like health care.

      Cons

      Out ream is not for everyone. You have to be the right person and embrace the work and embrace the every-single-day grind. Some people get chewed up by it. Successful people thrive in that environment. If you work hard, listen and learn from the people who are trying to help you, and have a positive attitude, you will be successful.

      Pros

      Fun job interacting with customers & exchanging stories about our pets. Very busy which made the work day go by fast. Co-workers were really nice individuals. Casual dress.

      Cons

      Antiquated equipment, neglected facilities, poor management practices, no incentives for advancement, employees not valued - treated as disposable.

      Advice to Management

      Way too many things to list. None of which would be implemented as employees are considered expendable.

      I worked at PetMeds full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Not much sticks out as being positive. There isn't much company culture there.

      Cons

      It was a horrible experience working at Petmeds. The facilities are utterly disgusting, on a health hazard level. Zero employee incentives. Upper management turn over is very high. Was embarrassing to meet with vendors and potential clients there. Wouldn't recommend even interviewing, it's a waste of your time and a career killer.

      Advice to Management

      I have a lot but it wouldn't be appropriate.

      Friendly and comfortable environment. Very professional approach to all day to day activities at Pharmacy . I worked under great bosses like Adam who was great motivating Sales Director , Eddie who was friendly, extremely cool, calm pharmacy Manager and Gary who was wonderful, warm Pharmacy Director. They always make you comfortable. Good work ethics. Good pay and Bonuses. Employees would be treated with respect.

      Cons

      Nothing much to mention. Its great company.

      Advice to Management

      Keep up the good work.

      Stressful work environment. Too much emphasis on making numbers as opposed to providing quality service and accurate work
