Benefits are nice
Sick time is separate
Flexible schedule
Cons
Slow season sucks you loose commissions
Managers have no control - have to go through associate relations
Only 3 (or 2) upper managers have authority to actually do anything in the store even if you hold a manager title

Almost never declines requested days off
Cons
Must have min one weekend day available
No room for growth very hard to become full time
Must make requests a month in advance even thought the schedule come out Thurs/fri for the following week, shifts can be unpredictable
Coworkers with seniority have “better” shifts
Scrubbing tanks may have you armpit deep
They say everyone is equal and gets paid the same but not everyone put in the same effort, ex: some people don’t do pet care at all or never close or never work truck days
