Pros
comfortable office, decent starting salary for entry level
Cons
Goodwill is using the job connection as a front to collect funding. There is no true emphasis on creating employable applicants or positions which will better a persons quality of life. My role was to get job seekers entered into the system and then make tons of calls each month to find out if they are working at any local job so that the goodwill could take credit for assisting the person and creating jobs. We were basically a one stop place to conduct a job search on your own and have a resume created which is a beneficial feature for people who have never had a resume. Vacation time is accrued but I never could find coverage to actually take a day off. I was so burnt out when I left.
