Palpable Score

71.0

/ 100

Chewy is a solid early-career option because the company runs a clear set of campus pathways (internship, co-op, and campus-eligible full-time roles) and backs those with mentoring and structured programming. The hiring process is explained in broad strokes, but timelines and assessment expectations vary by team, so the experience can feel less predictable than employers with fully standardised stages. Outcomes are mixed: there are visible intern-to-full-time pathways, but employee sentiment on progression is mid-range and Chewy does not publish early-career retention or promotion metrics.

Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

16.0

/ 20

The company advertises dedicated campus routes covering internships, a six-month co-op program, and campus-eligible full-time roles rather than relying only on ad hoc junior hiring.
Chewy states the internship runs June–August and the co-op runs June–December, which signals recurring, planned student intake with consistent timing.
The company positions some full-time roles specifically for students transitioning from school and returning interns/co-ops, creating a visible bridge from campus to permanent work.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

13.5

/ 20

The company outlines what happens after applying, including confirmation, recruiter outreach for aligned candidates, and notification if not selected.
Chewy describes a typical campus process of 1–2 screening rounds and a final interview that may include behavioural and/or technical questions depending on the role.
The company keeps timelines and number of interview rounds flexible by team and level, which makes the process harder to plan around compared with employers that publish fixed stages and target turnaround times.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

14.5

/ 20

The company commits to 1:1 mentorship for interns and co-ops, plus professional development workshops, networking events, and a leadership speaker series.
Chewy states interns and co-ops are paired with both a direct manager and a mentor, with ongoing feedback and development coaching alongside project delivery.
The company has less public, repeatable detail on onboarding structure for entry-level hires outside the campus programs, which makes support consistency harder to verify across teams.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

14.5

/ 20

The company lists core benefits in public materials, including medical and dental coverage and 401(k) plans, which supports baseline stability for early-career hires.
Chewy publishes base salary ranges on at least some corporate job postings, which is a meaningful transparency signal even though it is not universal across all roles.
The company’s internship pay details are not consistently visible on first-party postings, so students often have to rely on third-party reposts to understand hourly ranges.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

12.5

/ 20

The company frames campus-eligible full-time roles as a return path for prior interns and co-ops, which is a concrete early-career outcome mechanism even without published conversion rates.
Chewy has mid-range employee sentiment on progression in large review aggregates, with “career opportunities” sitting around the middle rather than indicating consistently fast advancement.
The company has had reported site-level layoffs in parts of the fulfillment network and does not publish early-career retention, time-to-promotion, or conversion metrics, which limits confidence in long-run outcomes for new joiners.
