Pros

Fun atmosphere. Great customers. Really fun if you love pets.

Cons

Getting hit hard by both competitors locally and online. PetSmart realizes this and is pushing their own Chewy.com. Especially if they put proprietary items on Chewy. Corporation will stay strong but stores will continue to dwindle. Don’t plan on bonuses.

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.
