Pros

Fun and interesting place to work. Felt good to work for a company that promotes recycling and has a mission to help disadvantaged people find jobs. Customers were friendly and had lots of repeat customers that you get to know.

Cons

Had to stay later than scheduled shift quite often to ckean up. Customers left merchandise for you to pick up everywhere.

Pros

Two thirds of the time regular full time employees get 40 hours.

Cons

Goodwill of North Florida does not give raises. They say they only promote to give raises, but they do not post available postions in management for their employees to apply. They hire people off the street to management without letting their regular sales associates interview. The corporate managers promote their favorites without letting anyone else apply. They can change your schedule availabilty at any time without notice and if you are unable to work the hours they scheduled you for you are told to quit. They used to schedule us to close and work until 730 but then they changed the schedule and now we cant get off until 8pm or later. They used to have 830 to 5pm shifts. I have been working at the company for four years and am disabled they changed my schedule so I now have to work until 630 every night I have health and family issues that make this difficult but the new store manager told me this is the way the schedule is now my health and family concerns do not effect the company. I have been with the company for four years, now that I have become disabled they are unable to accomodate my scheduling needs and can change my availability without notice. Other employees that have gone to school have gotten off at 5pm and have had their school schedules accomodated and they new people they hire get the hours and schedule thedy need so maybe you will get lucky if you are a new hire. Their medical plan is expensive.
