Pros

The biggest compliment I can give is that Goodwill works with and hires people who have "barriers to employment" (e.g. mental or physical handicaps, seniors, people with a criminal record). They help people get jobs (either with them or another place) that have the greatest difficulty getting one.

Cons

I wish they would give some employees a better pay rate and give the part time employees more hours

Dusty sometimes and some of the stuff can be gross but that's just part of working at a thrift store, having to handle that stuff
