Pros

Pay - Employment Specialist $20 Hours -7:30 - 4:30 - no overtime

Cons

Management is TERRIBLE....Unprofessional, Micro-Management The turn-over rate is horrific. They are blind to the fact that people leave because they are unprofessional, unorganized, and not good leaders. In the short period of time, I was employed I have seen many people come and go. The longest someone worked in the Goodwill Works Program was 4 years. Everyone else no longer than 1yr, and that probably was because they had to have time to find new employment. This is a terrible place to work. If you do decide to interview for the job, please pay attention to everything that is being said and how it is coming across. If it looks like a duck, walk like a duck and quack like a duck...It's a duck. Please run as far away as possible.
