Pros

Great co-workers; everyone friendly. A lot of unique stories and great employment opportunities for people who can't get a job anywhere else. OK benefits.

Cons

Upper management e.g. directors and CEO. Micro-management when they decide to show up, no communication, horrid bureaucracy, zero training, zero counselling; a non-profit with a noble mission statement which is not reflected in their actions. Low pay. CEO's make six figures with bonuses while majority of employees are paid minimum wage or below. Apart from the great people who bind together due to mutual horridness, this is a terrible company to work for. Improper use of funds is what makes aid and the Goodwill dirty business.
