Pros

Interested in helping members of the community "achieve their employment goals" , encouraging people to help the environment by donating used goods to keep them out of landfills.

Cons

Customer and employee attitudes, many employees are simply given a job and not given opportunities passed that.

Pros

Relatively decent pay for no necessary experience, see lots of interesting things, decent amount of freedom at work, customers are usually friendly, and you are doing something valuable for people.

Cons

Management was rough to deal with at times (ultimately why I left), and the few customers that are bad are really bad.

Pros

Their mission to put people to work is a noble cause. Most of the customers are great and the regulars really care.

Cons

Harsh working conditions, ill treatment of employees, discount insurance that is not worth paying for, no employee value, education means nothing, low wages, little to no advancement offered, favoritism, high turnover rate, managers get bonuses for meeting budget while employees get nothing, unrealistic goals expected, and long hours standing.
