Pros

Being able to help pet owners with their pet's needs

Cons

The company allow children who have never been told no to be in management positions across the whole company. They tell you they want people to "stick their necks out" but when you challenge the status quo or verbalise your ideas, you are torn down and made to feel like a nuisance. They have a complete disregard for mental health. HR will tell employees who are already in therapy to use an app for life coaching. Although they are fully aware this is dangerous to overlap treatments without actual medical advice. Management will throw you under the bus as soon as they feel like their job could be in jeopardy. They will stop at nothing until you quit from constructive dismissal as they don't want firing you on their hands. Management are also all best friends, but are constantly talking behind each other's back when they are out of each other's earshot. It doesn't provide you with much confidence that anything in the company would be confidential. I've never felt more mentally unwell than I did when I worked at this company. Not to mention that they continue to make more and more employees redundant. But not before getting them to train their replacements. Disgusting company, spineless children running the show and an actual danger to people's wellbeing. Avoid at all costs.

Pros

Great team ethos, work life balance is good, they care about the product and animals, if you're good at ticking boxes and keeping your mouth shut this is the perfect place for you.

Cons

HR is a more than a joke, protecting and almost supporting bullies and bullying activity, major issues are brushed under the carpet, think hiring more people will solve issues then get rid of them within weeks when it doesn't, sell sell sell no strategy just sell as much as you can. No communication between departments at all. Hiring new talent and then not listening to their expertise and knowledge.
