Avantages
The pay check was the only thing that kept me returning each day. Other than that, I wouldn't wish this job on my worst enemy.
Inconvénients
They expect you to hang and tag a certain amount of clothes each day and yet none of the shift supervisors sort enough "sellable" clothes for textile sorters to actually hang and tag their quota. Sorters end up digging through bodily fluid-soaked clothing in order to find one or two viable garments for every twenty disgusting items. This makes it very difficult to reach the quota. The supervisors spend most of their time gossiping in the break room or talking to other employees on the floor, rather than pulling viable garments like they're supposed to. I put in my two weeks but happened to get very sick on the Friday before my last week. I took the day off, the cold worsened over the weekend but I didn't want to leave my co-workers hanging since I knew they were short-staffed. I came in sick on Monday, and tried to hang as many clothes as I could. At the end of the day, the manager came up to me and coldly told me not to bother coming back because I didn't hang enough clothing that day. Goodwill was only a temporary job for me while I was in the middle of an important move. I didn't expect it to be great, but the abhorrent lack of maturity and professionalism was enough to prompt me to write a review. I don't even shop there anymore because of the things I experienced in the back room. My greatest advice for those interested in working here would be to RUN-- not walk-- FAR away.
