Pros

Great manager; helpful and fun coworkers; helps people with no experience/disabilities/criminal records get a foot in the door

Cons

Very busy/aggressive customers on sale days; lots of transactions required a manager to open the drawer, check high bills, etc; you aren't allowed to shop at the store you work at. After speaking with a friend who worked at a Goodwill in Minnesota, I learned that they are managed very differently from state to state - she did not have to deal with some of the same restrictions that I did (ie. shopping at the store you work at) and was even paid higher hourly, even though the minimum wage is lower in MN.
