Pros

Excellent team dynamics; the management would help on the floor when we were very busy or short-staffed; you meet lots of interesting donors; some potential for advancement in the company

Cons

On your feet for 8-10 hours a day; if the center got busy you might have to stay for two extra hours past your shift; work-life balance was a bit of a struggle

Pros

-4 weeks vacation -Benefits -half of coworkers are friendly If you like overtime, then go ahead and apply they will give you overtime and make it mandatory

Cons

-Work/life balance (they can get ridiculous with the overtime, even scheduling it Tuesday, cancelling it Wednesday, then reinstating it Friday and making it mandatory for Saturday) -growth (there is no tier system for my department, so unless the manager or supervisor quits, there is no room to advance)' Procedures clearly state employees need to have attended a "train the trainer" course in order to be able to officially train other employees, yet people who have only been here a few months are actively training other employees. This company takes a lot of shortcuts and gets over on a lot of employees. Since hardly any of the people have the courage to speak up when they are mistreated, speaking out will have them single you out, as if you are the only one who is bringing up issues with management or policies. They now have established a way to get in contact with HR and speak issues anonymously (hmm I wonder why?) and as other people have stated, the turnover rate is high because employees feel mistreated and as though they have no voice. There are so many excuses from management when it comes to why things are not getting taken care of that the employees voice concerns about. They want you to work and break your back, only to give you a review that only makes you out to be an average employee "like everyone else".
