Douglas Barr, former CEO of the Goodwill of Southern California, was the highest paid Goodwill executive in the country.[43] He received total compensation worth $1,188,733, including a base salary of $350,200, bonuses worth $87,550, retirement benefits of $71,050, and $637,864 in deferred compensation, after serving as CEO for 17 years. This is often incorrectly cited as his salary[42] "In 2011, the Columbia Willamette Goodwill, one of the largest in the country, says it paid $922,444 in commensurate wages to approximately 250 people with developmental disabilities. These employees worked 159,584 hours for an average hourly wage of $5.78. The lowest paid worker received just $1.40 per hour."[42]
People should put their clothing in public places for those who want them. That’s a LOW DOWN DIRTY SHAME! And those who they use to ADVERTISE should be ashamed of themselves, very SAD 😞
It's all donated then why are they raising their prices 3 & 4 times higher than they were a year ago? Lot of their help are volunteers. Don't try to hide the fact that most $$$ goes upstairs not to the workers.
I use to work for good will I have a friend that has been working at good will for 14 years she is only making 10 dollars a hour employees work their backside off some of them are homeless something must done for the employees sign Cynthia Smith there prices are very high I only shop mostly on senior day which is Wednesday and veterans Day is Thursday it use to be 30 percent off now it is 25 percent off sign Cynthia Smith the good merchandise goes to the back office
Please DO NOT DONATE TO GOODWILL THEY SCANDALOUS I WORKED THERE I HAVE PTSD MY MANAGER PHYSICALLY ASSULT ME AND CORPORATE DO NOTHING ALSO THIS MANAGER WAS ABUSIVE TO MY CO WORKERS AND THE SPECIAL NEEDS ONES . Really hard to watch and again corporate didn’t care working there was a nightmare
THANK you for making this spot. I am SO sick of being a cashier for Goodwill and getting screamed at because they now charge for their bags or I ask if they'd care to Round Up or Donate $1 to go toward the School to Work program. "They should be rounding up for ME!! Your CEOs are all billionaires! They all drive unbelievable cars!!" Well, ehh sir, that actually Isn't true. We put $.90 of every dollar the store earns back into the store for its programs it offers for its employees and the public that it helps. All I can do is shake my head. Ignorance and stupidity. So much.
But the owner is a billionaire 🤔, who are you helping? Some needy/Poor people can’t even buy at GOODWILL! What happens to the clothing GOODWILL don’t sell? They send it to land fill. GOODWILL charged taxes on what taxes has been paid on already 🤔USED CLOTHING, APPLIANCES, FURNITURES, etc etc etc. RIPPING OFF THE POOR TO HELP THE POOR? They can fool some of the people some of the time! BUT THEY CANT FOOL ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME. Think 🧐 💭
