Pros

Environmentally concerned. A few good co-workers. Laid back. Nice customers. Lots of different positions that you can learn. No discrimination for hiring people with tattoos/piercings/coloured hair.

Cons

Too low of salary for what you go though. Raises are very small and hard to achieve. VERY unhealthy environment. You get a lot of mold, spiders (some very poisonous), dead animals, feces, lice, cockroaches, bed bugs, and other unpleasant things from donations to sort through. Employees got sick often and got a lot of lung or sinus infections. Some items in those bags will still go out to be sold if they look okay. Unreasonable expectations and quotas. High turnover. The time frame for rolling out products and getting them on the shelf is unreasonable. You can't deal with customers (especially during a sale when it's crammed), organize shelves, and get products on it in such a short time. You end up doing other peoples jobs a lot. Training is not that great. They had the employee I was replacing train me for a couple days. She just gave me vague basic instructions the rest I had to learn as I went. A lot of gossip between co-workers and between management. A lot of drama as well. Overall just very unclean, overwhelming, and demanding with little pay or benefits.
