Pros

It will keep you fit. Friendly Coworkers Sometimes you'll see people donate cool things.

Cons

Customers are rude and refuse to listen to employees. Pay is not good for the amount of work you endure. Can be extremely stressful. Management was horrible about working with the employees to fix issues in the workplace. One day can be completely peaceful and the next can be pure chaos.

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.
