      Pros

      Solid company with a strong business plan

      Cons

      Was completely sold on the position and its possibilities...several DM changes in 4 years led to confusion and a lack of cohesion amongst the teams.

      A dirty job but someone who loves dogs has to do it.

      Salon manager

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Opportunity to make more money if you work harder You work more with animals than people You learn and get better You can be creative Lots of opportunity for more pets Exciting- you never know what kind of day you will have

      Cons

      It's dirty, hairy and smelly Too many tasks that can never be accomplished in one day handed out Small work environment with lots of females equals drama Customers and management can be a pain in the butt Dogs can be really uncooperative and you need to keep your cool Maintaining your own equipment Wear and tear on your joints and body from wiggly dogs Risk of getting bit

      Loved working with the pets. Did not care for lack of advancement.

      Pros

      Loved all the pets you deal with each day. Customer's pets were always fun to play with. Helping customers and making them happy was the best part of the job.

      Cons

      Pay for part-timers was minimum. Pay for hourly associates and key holders was also very low. You would have a pet-care manager manager making as low as $12.00 per hour and also have them run the building a couple of nights per week. The only people that made decent money were the salary managers.
