Pros

Except for having a job vrs none....There are allot of people that come in a treat you like a person then there are those that come in and treat you like crap.

Cons

The Weaverville store is very rude and fired me because of a back injury and it was inconvenient for them....I'm sure not all Goodwills are like this. Also they do try and brainwash you into thinking they do soo much good. This is what happens they get DONATIONS they sell the donations...whatever doesn't sell there goes to the outlet to by the pound then if it doesn't sell they take it in the back and smush it into clothes bales...and you guessed it they then sell it to a company that then the other company or person sends it over seas! I really hate that they play it off like they sent it over seas...hello if it wasn't for donations your CO wouldn't be making millions a year!!!! That's why I say donate to salvation army...a real non profit store.

Pros

Great manager and team members. Flexible work schedule and easy workplace. I am familiar in local community and its work culture.

Cons

Slow response from Goodwill hiring management. Even though their career website have available job positions in locations where I live nearby, but I wish I get response from hiring management to have an interview and move forward with hiring process.
