The Salvation Army Employee Reviews about "helping people"

Pros

Helping people less fortunate then myself and helping people who just need someone to guide to the right agency. The hours are good. I work three days al week and off 2 days a week.

Cons

My position is not permenant. The hourly rate is minimum wage,

Pros

This organization has a fantastic mission and is truly interested in helping people in need.

Cons

This organization runs on rules. A lot of rules. If you like rules you will be fine working here. If you think you should be allowed to speak to co-workers without permission, you may not want to work here.

Pros

Staff gets along; some staff care about the residents

Cons

Unprofessionally run; lack of communication; admin cares more about money than helping people;

Pros

The Salvation Army puts the most money toward community projects than any other non profit in my area. They have very low overhead compared to other non profits and I enjoy helping people and the community

Cons

I could do without the religious stuff

Pros

Fulfilling and purposeful job helping people find their way.

Cons

Never enough time or resources for all the needs presented.

Pros

You are doing a fabulous work for your community and helping people who really need it. They provide good health benefits. There is a spiritual aspect to the work that helps.

Cons

I was very underpaid. When laid off you cannot get unemployment They did not help employees deal with the intense stress of the job Poor communication and lack of respect for employees Seeming little connection to the employees needs

Pros

I love it because my work makes a difference in the world! I feel like we are really helping people survive and change their lives for the better. It is easy to go to a job I love and the people I work with are committed to their work. I will never look for another job! I just plain love it! The on-line site keeps us up to date on the big picture and we have the latest technology to communicate within the company with each other (and management if we choose).

Cons

The pay is a bit low but the benefits are great.

Pros

Helping people but not really

Cons

Making money off slaves did

Pros

It’s rewarding work in the sense that you are helping people in need indirectly by organizing & reporting financials. Very kind & respectful employees & management.

Cons

Pay is below average & highly religious (which is only a negative if you aren’t yourself an evangelical christian). Some people have a tone of superiority.

Pros

It's great that I worked for a organisation that is aimed at helping people in need. Mission focused on helping others.

Cons

Not many that I can think of, except I think that the Salvation stores should be kept in a cleaner state.
