What are retail and sales assistants saying about pay at Pets at Home?

  • Best thing

    Best things about working here for me are definitely the team & the pay.

    Worst thing

    Worst things are pressure to preform well especially with KPIs as it’s almost completely out of your control, Also the rotas , you can work 11am-8:30pm one day and work 6:45am-4pm the next day and 10am-7pm the day after so there’s absolutely no structure and it can be difficult to fit much of a social life in outside of work.

  • Best thing

    Pay isn’t bad, the people I work with make it bare-able

    Worst thing

    Constantly staying late, missing breaks and it being unpaid, expect too much with no time often running the salon on your own meaning you have to groom dogs do walk in nail trims in the middle of grooms, be a receptionist and a cleaner all in one as well as having difficult dogs on your own and risk of being bitten or seriously hurt and no one would know if you are on your own. Unrealistic targets, keep adding walk in services when we already struggle for time, the staff who make these new walk in services have never worked in a salon in their lives.
