Pros

I get to work with animals Not having to deal with customer service The dogs :) The employees for me personally add to it Flexible

Cons

The pay is only $9.50 here in Michigan and there's so much work to be done the pay should at least be $12.00 for everything that needs to be done on the daily basis The low pay The fact that everyone is hired in PART TIME like no I need more than 30 hours a week for rent!

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.
