Pros

The many efforts made on the part of the retail stores supports many wonderful programs through out the community and provides opportunities to individuals that may not have been available if it were not for the success of the retail stores. The committment to recycling has minimized the waste which is a win-win both the eviornment & the company as a whole as income is the generated from the recycling efforts put forth at the retail store & outlet warehouse.

Cons

Goodwill stands for many great things and is very proactive in providing programs to a diverse client base which are extremely important to the betterment of those individuals, however the salary wages and expectations put upon the retail associates is barely balanced. There is a constant turn over rate that could be very likely be minimized buy investing stronger financially in that realm of the spectrum.

Pros

Work fulfilling both physically and socially, dealing with donors and fellow employees for this retiree and former legal and business professional.

Cons

Creepy, clannish, petty, and cultish management is more interested in humiliating others under the guise of "following rules" many of their own making than in ensuring that the work facility is properly equipped to handle daily workflow. Communication nonexistent. Managers pop in and out, apparently stationed at some secret location.  Robotic replies to legitimate work questions when they weren't out-and-out nasty.  I've occasionally dealt with this sort of folks, but never an entire collection of them cheering each other on as might appear in some deleted scene from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." Poisonous and bizarre. Recommended only for the Abnormal Psychology student.
