Pluspunten

Coworkers were great - had a lot of heart and commitment. The company culture is trying hard to be inclusive.

Minpunten

My experience was that working for GOODWILL is not a good place for people with disabilities. I disclosed on my interview that I am a person with disabilities and I use Paratransit. I managed to last six months in this job and it was a struggle with management. It took me four months of advocating to finally get a bench to sit on to wait for Paratransit. I couldn’t get the company to get me an assistive program to help me with typing. I think I was a perfect fit for this position as my skills and experience fit the position. Often it felt like a daily struggle as I had to explain basic concepts that apply for folks who have disabilities. I had 30 to 40 hours of work to fit into a 20 hour slot. My manager was forcing me to change my hours, and it would make it even harder to get to work using taxis and Paratransit. I felt very unwelcome from direct management and the workplace was chaotic. I left after six months.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
