Savers reviews

Rich company history as a family business that is growing up. The business model is based on reuse and recycling making this one of the original "green" businesses. Employees get the opportunity to interact with the many nonprofit partners that Savers purchases its inventory from. Every item sold in the stores is purchased from a nonprofit partner, which in turn funds the good deeds the nonprofit delivers in the communities they operate in. The employees are also great people to work with.

The Savers corporate office in Bellevue, WA is a great place to work. There seems to be an unofficial open door policy, and all levels are approachable and friendly. There is a casual comradeship and support group amongst team members, and many of us also maintain a social relationship. The workload is high, but expectations are not unrealistic. The work life balance is very good, and most departments are extremely understanding of real life priorities, and family comes first. Many people work flexible hours (e.g. 6am - 3pm; 7am - 4pm) depending on the needs of their work commute & family commitments. There are opportunities for promotion from within, and learning opportunities, if you are willing to speak up for yourself, and work hard. Most salaried team members receive 10 days paid vacation, 5 days sick/personal leave, 5 public holidays + 2 floating holidays. The paid vacation increases to 15 days after 2 years, and to 20 days after 5 years. On accepting an offer, paid vacation is definitely negotiable, and I would recommend asking for 15 days to start. With respect to working remote, some departments are more supportive than others - but most departments will temporarily allow it in special circumstances. The the health benefits are very good, and the salary is average to good.
