Pros

loved my fellow workers,loved the special needs ones too,all very sweet

Cons

Goodwill retail stores have turned into a FOR PROFIT business that DISGUISES its self as a 501c3 organization,which technically it is non profit in the IRS eyes,but believe me it is NOT! These are all based on the what regional CEO wants to do with his stores and use his extensive resources to benefit the community. the problem is that this CEO ROBERT SMITH does not!! All he cares about is opening brand new multi million dollar stores and avoid paying taxes! Companies like Target,Walmart,hell even Mcdonalds do wayyyy more for the community that Goodwill EVER will. They became very greedy with the FREE MERCHANDISE when things like ebay became available,where they can look products up and jack the prices wayy up,hell they can even charge more than what the actual store would sell it for. GOODWILL IS A SCAM, DONT FALL FOR IT!

Pros

Great manager and team members. Flexible work schedule and easy workplace. I am familiar in local community and its work culture.

Cons

Slow response from Goodwill hiring management. Even though their career website have available job positions in locations where I live nearby, but I wish I get response from hiring management to have an interview and move forward with hiring process.
