Pros

You have to like animals you get to see a lot, but you have to be able to work hard and fast. They want everything clearned before customers come in. I always fest customer should see us taking care of the animals. They did give 2 weeks vacation and they paid hourly associates weekly

Cons

Hours as a store manager you never got a lunch break and you always worked past your shift. From the middle of november to the end of december you will work 6 to 7 days straight and you won't be compinsated for your hours.

Pros

15% off whole store 50% proprietary brands Petting animals Friendly customers Almost never declines requested days off

Cons

Must have min one weekend day available No room for growth very hard to become full time Must make requests a month in advance even thought the schedule come out Thurs/fri for the following week, shifts can be unpredictable Coworkers with seniority have “better” shifts Scrubbing tanks may have you armpit deep They say everyone is equal and gets paid the same but not everyone put in the same effort, ex: some people don’t do pet care at all or never close or never work truck days
