Pros

Stable job security builds team work and friendships Good management great store flow coaching and guidance to improve bad habits great rewards in store and to bring in customers

Cons

Mostly from customers that have bad attitudes Poor management (but they usually don't last so that becomes a pro) More education for management in the Salon and Pet Care would help with a lot of issues

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.
