      Pros

      Lovley Co workers, helping pet parents

      Cons

      Retail lol, not to much other than angry pet parents when they can't get the pet they want or the food they want because we don't carry it or it's not the right environment for a fish or reptile.

      Quality Assurance Associate

      I had an interview late August, sent a thank you the same day, followed up when they said they would get back to me, and then again a week later and I got no response. I gave up and they just sent me an email saying the position was on hold and they hoped to have an update at the end of the week. I'd still like to see what they might offer me so what could I say in response?

      Senior Consultant

      I just got an email from Norton that someone ran a reputation report on me. I didn’t run it. I just finished a second round interview yesterday. Do you think it’s HR doing due diligence or a scammer? Is running reputation reports common practice?
