Pros

From the mutual suffering of working in the back of a musty thrift shop stems a certain camaraderie between coworkers. My fellow workers were, as a whole, friendly and kind to me. Also, I do think Savers has the right idea in terms of management. The open door policy is good.

Cons

I left this job under the definite impression that I was being worked overtime hours without receiving overtime pay. The last straw was when they scheduled me for six days midway through a five-day week, and altered the schedule to make it appear as though I didn't work on a day I did. Aside from that, the job was predictably boring, tiring, and sometimes plain gross: even with a surgeon's mask and latex gloves, I still was coughing and sneezing while on the job. An ideal day was something like hanging clothes for 4 hours, and racking clothes for another 4. As a new employee, you are generally put to doing the work that nobody more established is interested in doing.

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.
