Pros

Lots of old-school products that you cannot purchase anywhere else but at a Goodwill retail chain. Great savings and discounts on clothes.

Cons

Terrible hours. Extreme psychical labor with no overtime or severance pay. Managers are complete self-centered egomaniacs who won't lift a finger but will demean you for the slightest errors while continuing to help employees with next to nothing. Products are often sold in the store that has already been used. DVD's with no CD's inside the case are routinely sold as boxed movies to deceive customers.
