The best thing about working for Goodwill was the moral satisfaction received from knowing that you help out many people.

Inconvénients

MISREPRESENTATION! Goodwill portrays that it is a non-profit organization, this is a complete lie! All of the donations that they receive are completely free, but what the general public fails to realize is that Goodwill profits off of every piece that is sold. This money goes to overpayed division donated goods managers, 2 manager conferences per year that include two day hotel stays, food, travel, and hourly pay, one manager retreat per year that is all inclusive, and one assistant manager conference that includes hotel stay and all accomodations. Add this up, and Goodwill spends well over $100,000.00 per year in pointless meetings and even more on donated goods division managers who are overpayed, and get the luxery of working out of their own home. This money cold be spent in many better ways. These stores also take away business from local mom and pop shops that have been around for years, and the worst part of all, NOT ONE person in management in any store across the entire state of Kentucky is disadvantaged or disabled, evidently, they are only good for the less paying jobs.

Avantages

Work fulfilling both physically and socially, dealing with donors and fellow employees for this retiree and former legal and business professional.

Inconvénients

Creepy, clannish, petty, and cultish management is more interested in humiliating others under the guise of "following rules" many of their own making than in ensuring that the work facility is properly equipped to handle daily workflow. Communication nonexistent. Managers pop in and out, apparently stationed at some secret location.  Robotic replies to legitimate work questions when they weren't out-and-out nasty.  I've occasionally dealt with this sort of folks, but never an entire collection of them cheering each other on as might appear in some deleted scene from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." Poisonous and bizarre. Recommended only for the Abnormal Psychology student.
