Pros

Great, friendly customers who care about reuse/recycling. Coworkers in my department were always hardworking. 10 day break between Christmas and NYE.

Cons

Discontent between ReStore employees and HFHSTL proper. ReStore employees get paid much less than others in the organization that work in the office often when they have the same skills and education as their counterparts. HFHSTL's mission is to help homeowners get homes with zero interest by "sweat equity". But in 2011 when the bank for HFHSTL forgave ALL of the late payments from homeowners, HFHSTL took the money, but continued to charge the homeowners late payments and fees on top of that. I couldn't stay there after that. Directors do not give reviews on time; you have to contsantly "remind" them in order to get one.

Pros

In the beginning there was a big sense of family and being there for each other. There were also nice perks and benefits. Good healthcare.

Cons

Extremely low morale, LOW pay, and high pressure to sell despite lack of good inventory. Lots of favoritism and bad-mouthing certain employees and volunteers behind their backs. Allowing certain associates to take multiple hour breaks despite it being against the rules. Little incentives from upper management to do a good job. Upper management seems to constantly see the bad in things and not what you're doing well.
