Pros

Active work that keeps you moving all day. Friendly employees.

Cons

Work every weekend and every holiday. 10-12 hour work days. Regional manager told all of management that savers has different pay categories for each district and that we're the lowest pay scale.

Pros

Benefits, ability to move up and discount were really great opportunities. They seemed to be a really great company for diversified staff from all backgrounds, and everyone was incredibly nice to work with (including managers most of the time!). Training program was fantastic, they got you orientated with two full days on a computer guided program, then had you slowly begin to work on the floor. I only worked there for 4 months and by the end of it I felt like I knew the routine well enough to finally feel adjusted into the role. Lots of cool merchandise you wouldn't find anywhere else. Has a really great image as a helper to non-profit and an eco-positive business Schedule was consistent, typically wouldn't make you work nights then mornings like most shift work.

Cons

Very uncleanly handling people's used things - those who deal with them often get masks but some of the stuff people give you is molding, has questionable stains or is just incredibly disgusting. Value Village accepts nearly everything! Horrible if you are OSD attendant and took in something completely broken for free. Goes straight to trash! Their prices have risen and are embarrassingly high Discount doesn't start until 5 days after something has been on the shelf! Almost no point in it sometimes! Men and women can be divided in a sexist way - men do the heavy lifting work and sorting in the warehouse, women are either cashiers or tagging clothes. Kind of annoyed me. Halloween and half-off Mondays are insanity. You can not get them off and customers are relentless.
