Minpunten

Groomed for petsmart years ago i didnt mind bathing for a couple weeks to refresh my memory and learn new policies but yet its been over a month and still bathing ....need a 2nd job to be able to afford anything. Everyone i work with seems to think Im their personal assistant / slave. Im expected to stop what im doing to deal with the groomer's dogs or answer the phones. Everyone tells me what to do or always correcting me. They can litterally tell me not to do something and another groomer can do what i just did 5 secs ago yet they say nothing to that person. The kennels and wash area was disgusting when i started ( ive slowly been able to clean it up some ,hard to keep it up by urself) ive been fussed at for cleaning . They need to worry more about the cleanliness than if Someone that isnt a groomer check a groom dog in. I work with a group of hypocrites. I wouldnt personally bring my dogs there til it is clean and sanitized as it should be. I was told not to clean cause no one else does it so im wasting my time . WTH! I just stay to myself . its miserable to never feel like you can do anything right. No one talks so there is always the feeling of the elephant in the room . im trying to get out of this job asap.

Pluspunten

The company pushes for more and more from the bottom level employees without better pay. I worked there before the restructuring and; not much can make me cry, but working here sure did, even back then. I can’t imagine how anxiety inducing it must be to work there now. Animal welfare is a complete non-concern. The only thing that’s pushed is sell, sell, sell. It’s borderline dystopian. Bad management seems to be a common issue, not only from my experience, but many others’ as well. I worked until I was an exhausted sweaty mess to make sure everything in pet care or, when I groomed, the salon, was cleaned to perfection as expected of me (and I reiterate: “me,” because these standards were not expected of my co-workers, just me) and overall felt very unseen. The only times I did feel “seen,” was when mistakes were made. Work was treated like boot camp. A co-worker that was subtley targeting/bullying me, and even started rumors accusing me of racist remarks(!!!), was promoted and anything I reported was downplayed because they were friends with the assistant manager. Working here was an overall traumatizing experience.

Minpunten

Employees are expected to be work-robots
