Pros

Set schedule, full time hours available and given, you get to see a lot of cool things that are donated; employee discount is 50% on the bulk of the product, flexible dress code, opportunity for bonus when sales goals are reached, many different positions to learn.

Cons

Daily contact with filthy, wet, sticky, stained, crusty, and damaged items, expectations for output are too high, leading to excessive pulling of merchandise; there is hardly any compassion for the wellbeing of employees, you WILL have your earned vacation hours stolen from you IF you take your vacation within the last 30 days of your employment with Savers; the production room is often poorly ventilated, poorly heated in winter and similar to a sauna in the summer. There is no LP (loss prevention) and shoplifting is rampant. Wages are very low for the ridiculous workload.

Pros

It's a Job I guess

Cons

The pay is just over minimum wage. There is no work life balance they don't offer holiday pay and require you to work on all holidays except for Christmas and Thanksgiving. They constantly add new thing to the job and will never give you a pay raise or advancement. All around bad company that's taking advantage of working class Americans.
