Pros

I like staying active and busy so the job of donation attendant fulfilled that regard very well. Also, I only reluctantly list this as a pro, but we were very knowledgeable of important issues only because they were constantly pounded into our heads as if we were in the military or prison.

Kontras

I understand doing things right is expected as normal, but over time I noticed that we received almost no positive feedback from our supervisors while we were constantly threatened with firing for even uniform misdemeanors. I felt more like an inmate than an employee my entire time there. Even though we were understaffed and overworked, our supervisors reminded us repeatedly that we were expendable and replaceable. When I called in that my car broke down and I was unable to make to work, the next day I was handed a pink slip for not having a doctor's note for taking a day off. They didn't care that I wasn't sick and honesty didn't matter, company policy was company policy.

Pros

I enjoyed my customer service work - helping people as a part of a larger mission to help the community. I found it rewarding to advance to supervisor and pick up new skills and responsibilities such as safety auditing and supply management. And of course it was always interesting to sort all the interesting and unique donated goods.

Kontras

A change in management over the past year+ has been very difficult for me. I found my work more heavily scrutinized and criticized in ways that felt unclear and unfair. The new manager had a clear bias towards certain employees, gossiped openly and loudly and often with explicit HIPAA violations, and made it literally impossible for me to keep track of inventory supplies as a part of my responsibilities. Communication between management and associates - and even between management and supervisors is very poor. Workplace culture has seemed to shift from being very flexible and people-oriented to more stringent on policy and focused on revenue. Trust in upper management is strained. Day to day if you stick to your task and focus on production, you'll probably do well. But for me it isn't what it used to be.
