What is the best part of working at the company?
The day they fired me was the best part of working at the company.  Ahh, what a relief that I didn't have to calmly deal with those back stabbing hypocrites anymore.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being forced to deal with the incredible laziness and incompetence of the payroll department and the HR department.  

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They say one thing in meetings and then live their lives completely the opposite when actually dealing with work situations. For example, they preach that we should help people overcome obstacles to employment and then they are the obstacles.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Frustration and fear that HR or Payroll will come up with something new that I have to do or an error they made that I have to fix. My actual job would be so much easier if I didn't have to also do HR and Payroll's jobs too.

Working with the challenged adults and my fellow co-workers.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
My day started meeting my staff assigning them their daily post. Then making the rounds to all my assigned sites throughout the city, meeting with clients and stocking and supplying each site. Daily contact with my director, then checking with each site for upcoming events and or solving issues of the day before clocking out.

I started work here as a store associate. I hadn't had a real job in years and had no experience. Leadership took the time to teach me and invest in me and they offer plenty of classes that you can attend while on the clock to better yourself and your future. I am so thankful for this job and all the people here who take the time to help others be successful. It is hard work but I feel I have purpose and it is rewarding. 

They really care about their employees. Offer training, job advancement, help veterans, homeless, and offer a wide variety of human resources. Great starting pay with raises. Great training in all areas of interest. Flexable schedualing, Begin at Home program for employees who need help with difficult things in their personal life. Ex. divorce, addiction, mental health, financial planning, hardships. 401k, medical, dental. And so much more.

A typical day at work isn’t your typical day at work. Everyday is something new and exciting. Seeing the faces of people who donate knowing they’re helping others is satisfying and then on the other end of seeing customers excited about what they found and the great deals they see is really nice.

All my co workers were great ppl to work with. I never dreaded going into work. Outstanding group of ppl to work with. Everyone helps one another and everyone is willing to go out of their way to make sure their job gets done. 

Great group of people with great ideas and the best of intentions, unfortunately not all intentions materialize or manifest into action or results.  Still, headed in the right direction and making headway.

I love it. 
It’s hard work, don’t get me wrong, and some days it can be harder than others.

Everything is neatly organized and everyone, I believe, is adequately paid and trained!
