Pros

They allowed me to work hard and at my best. Had no problem with me coming in early and staying late.

Cons

Was only part time which meant no benefits or anything. Often had many complaints from fellow coworkers about the actions and decisions of corporate.

Pros

You get a discount on the items in the store and the hours were generally flexible to the point that you could literally work 1 day a week if you wanted. Great for people who don't need money, but want a job. Lots of nice people to meet.

Cons

The fact that you'd get one day a week even if you wanted more hours. On the other end of the spectrum - if you had a funeral you would 'gain a point' or get a red mark no matter what, no exceptions. Pure, evil draconian corporate extortion of the human spirit. This place is worse than other corporations, in that it taunts people into believing in their mission. Too bad their mission is simply to make money - this isn't about charity. The managers were bullies and everyone played favorites. Tons of drama and backstabbing as well. Not a healthy work environment. They worked people against each other. It was an unfair place to work for someone trying to survive. There's absolutely no excuse for the cruel, draconian ways of treating the employees. They were so bent on trying to be efficient and meet their goals; they forgot about their employees. Management simply did not care about its employees - Another one bites the dust, but who cares, right Goodwill?
