Pros

Hour lunch, some friendly co-workers, some benefits. But other than that, this job was more of a pain than a delight.

Cons

Alot of drama, too many managers/assistant managers make communication obsolete when one tells you something completely different than the other. Terrible long hours with little pay. Bi-weekly pay. Alot of snitching and miscommunication. Can get fired for just about anything.

Pros

Most of the people i worked with were nice but that's pretty much all the niceties I have for that company.

Cons

They treat their employees like crap. It would be one thing if Goodwill paid a living wage, but the minimum wage does not cover the amount of work they expect from their staff; not to mention the abusive customers. The $5 gift cards were more of an insult than helpful considering that they are raking it in hand over fist. I actually wanted to do a good job, but their emphasis on quantity made them miss out on the quality items that came through there. They claimed that they were interested in their employees suggestions, butt after 9 months they still hadn't given me the proper forms to fill out. At one point, the back of the store (where I worked) flooded a couple of inches and yet i was expected to keep moving heavy electrical equipment through the water. They have no standards regarding their donation policy. I'm all for fixing things up, but 90% of the donations are broken beyond repair and covered in multiple bodily fluids. I could keep going, but I think you got the picture
