The Salvation Army reviews

1. Sometimes they have snacks here and there. But I heard those were for the beneficiaries. Sometimes they bring in cake or pizza on special days. No coffee. 2. I don't clean the restrooms. No I don't think so. I'm in the back so I don't get to see everybody. But nope, haven't seen any homeless as far as I am aware of. 3. Definitely a lot of shop lifters. It is super easy to shop lift. People sometimes switch tags too. 4. I don't know what the moody blues are. Is that music? 5. I actually do see some pretty hot babes come in. If you're good at sweet talking, then yeah sure, its a good place to meet women I suppose. 6. I don't really have a funniest story. I guess my coworker telling me the story of how she used to be a lesbian but god helped her turn straight. 7. Yes, they do. Tons of weird funky smells and stains. 8. I guess because sex toys have been used before? We do sell underwear. That is a good question, I don't know. I don't deal with donations though. 9. Definitely. 10. I used to. I could easily steal little things here and there, never got caught. But deep down, I knew it was wrong so I just stopped. Now I only steal office supplies and trash they are throwing away. 11. I would steal the keys and let you guys go in at one in the morning. Or put a piece of wood at the door. Easy.

I had no idea about any of that honestly. Religion is never even brought up. Nobody really even asked me about my religion. To me, its just a job. I don't see religion anywhere. Except cashiers do offer free complimentary bibles. I just wanted a job. I don't discriminate against anyone or have to.

I've had to defend the atheist part of myself, yes. Have had several discussions with co-workers regarding faith, religion, and god all in one go. They look at me like I need to find Jesus on a regular basis. I was invited to services at their regional office/halfway house, which I politely declined. The invitation is a weekly occurrence.

I was able to assist and supervise in a field that meant so much to me (youth). As a member of the church, a volunteer, and a salvation army worker, I genuinely experienced the art of hard work! The people were amazing and I was given so much joy doing what I loved.

I didn’t enjoy the lack of communication, organization, and foundation of some of the programs.

My favorite benefit was being able to wake up every morning and do what I love which is working with children and assisting in that field as much as I was able too!!

Meeting nice people, nice coworkers, discount on items

Making minimum, mgmt never happy with workers , workers get freaked out whenever mgmt comes in afraid they always find something wrong, one mgmt person makes people cry, high stress to get store in order, few workers doing what 20 employees did in the past, dirty floors, no maintenance or cleaning crew, no air conditioning, ceiling tiles missing and ignored

Discount on products

The pros of working at the Salvation Army is to be apart of an established organization with a mission to serve others in the community without discrimination

Many of the employees do not know that discrimination against employees is a problem.

benefits based on favoritism. PT employees are not appreciated for their contributions.

Not like expected

Co workers were very friendly and enjoyed working with them

Partime hours, close to home.

Set hours so you know your schedule

LOW pay, having to deal with the customers who have mental heath issues when shopping at the retail locations, having to deal with incompetent district management, I can't say this enought but the employees are EXTREMELY under appreciated, never given raises

I work in donation so I get to run around all day and meet lots of people and help them while they donate so it's never boring.

taught me a lot about people

management, Captains and above in rank, were delusional about real world problems.
