Pros

There are not any real pros to working with this company other than potentially meeting good people, if you are lucky.

Cons

Excessive micromanagement, nearly pays minimum wage, hard physical labor, constant exposure to the elements, unsafe work environment. If you are promoted you will barely be paid more than minimum wage, manager make less than I have at other entry level jobs. Goodwill has also been exposed for misappropriation of funds in recent years (supposedly a nonprofit), they also recently ended a program in which they were providing employment to mentally disabled persons, leaving them all unemployed and majorly upsetting their life habits.

Pros

I get paid consistently. I don't have to stress about restraining people or raising my voice. My clients are friendly.

Cons

The pay is that good. I have to travel to NYC every day.

Pros

Work fulfilling both physically and socially, dealing with donors and fellow employees for this retiree and former legal and business professional.

Cons

Creepy, clannish, petty, and cultish management is more interested in humiliating others under the guise of "following rules" many of their own making than in ensuring that the work facility is properly equipped to handle daily workflow. Communication nonexistent. Managers pop in and out, apparently stationed at some secret location.  Robotic replies to legitimate work questions when they weren't out-and-out nasty.  I've occasionally dealt with this sort of folks, but never an entire collection of them cheering each other on as might appear in some deleted scene from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." Poisonous and bizarre. Recommended only for the Abnormal Psychology student.
