Pros

Good Hours Bonus at the end of the month

Cons

where do I even start? management is extremely catty and disorganized. Childish and demeaning behavior toward lower staff. The customers are no better. They will curse you out and criticize you if they do not get a discount. And management values money over employees as there were many instances where customers would say crude (and racist) remarks to employees as management does nothing to defend them. overall management could care less about the employees and it is just best to stay clear from this company overall. Great amount of favoritism and overall cattiness toward young people of this company as most of the employees are in their late 30's and 40's working minimum wage. They would always instigate and spread rumours about the younger staff that would automatically lead to hostility. Jealousy towards employees who have a bright future and childishness ruined my enthusiasm for working in this deplorable company.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
