Pros

Absolutely no pros to this job . Overworked under paid .

Cons

Terrible customer service , no communication between groomers and management. Only hire manager outside of company with no grooming or pet care experience. Constantly messing up scheduling , not responding to clients up customer price by 25% doodles are being charged $400 while groomers makes 20 a hour with no other way to make more aside from tips that drastically drop since price increases
