Pros

Co-workers are usually friendly, the work environment is pretty decent considering its still a thrift store, benefits are good for a single person, and the work schedule is not that bad. there career centers actually do alot of good work for the community.

Cons

your doing warehouse type work for min wage pay, some of the current managers have no idea what there doing half the time, benefits suck for families and couples,being a thrift store it gets very dirty, very fast on weekends.

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.
