Goodwill reviews

Management anywhere from inconsistent to abysmally lazy. It almost seems like the higher up a person gets, the less that is expected of them in terms of work quality Severe lack of trust between corporate/upper management and middle to lower management in sales department A lot of unnecessary make-it-up-as-we-go-along decision making, causing the company to operate very inefficiently Almost no upward mobility unless you become the favorite of a higher-up Very severe staffing issues. Turnover rate is very high, even with some of the more professional corporate departments If you know very, very little, it's not that bad of a place to work. If you have the swing of things and know what's going on, it is an incredibly frustrating place to work.

Corporate gives us sick days, but gives verbal and written reprimands if you take it; even with a doctors excuse. Breaking this rule can end in firing. The same goes for personal days. Request must be submitted far in advance and then OK'd by management. So much for "personal". Short of a funeral for immediate family, you won't get off. The dress code is from hell. We used to wear comfortable jeans with blue shirts. Now it is uncomfortable, hot clothing with belts and aprons. Store managers are caught in the middle; forced to implement unfair policies and create stress in the workplace, or ignore corporate and do what is right making the workplace much more bearable but incurring the wrath of higher ups.
