Pros

Generally good team and fun. A great cause and rewarding work.

Cons

Overstretched workforce. Likes to tick boxes about staff wellbeing but when it comes to real time support and understanding, lots of placatory language and no real listening. Weak, inexperienced management in some areas.

Pros

Front line staff are hard grafters Volunteers are dedicated Customers are generous

Cons

Higher management have no idea now to run a charity, they employ mindless immature people to try and help run retail side of things when they have zero experience. Management spend a lot of the charity’s profits buying ‘new goods’ to fill shops, then end up throwing or doing tip runs with the good quality donated items! There is no consideration to staff on the front line, no compassion no working ‘together ‘to get jobs done, a lot of pressure and I’m better then you vibes!
