The GW Bitters Salary Scandal

The GW Bitters Salary ScandalIt isn’t that some nonprofit CEOs make big bucks. It’s that most nonprofit employees are paid too little. General managers are paid a salary plus bonus at years end. Less employees, higher sales prices, increases manager bonuses. The Bitters store operates for profit, not for a helping hand.I have a friend who recently worked at Goodwill at the Bitters location in San Antonio, TX. She said that employees dislike the general manager because he is very strict and doesn't allow any overtime because he wants a bigger bonus. This manager always blames employees for any indiscretion. This GM wants higher productivity without any overtime. My friend also mentioned she was very frightened because of theft and the lack of security.Most employees quit or get fired because they just can't meet the outlandish productivity demands. All the veteran employees know that every General Manager won't last very long in this store. She said seasoned employees know when the General Manager is leaving before they do. Customers are always complaining about higher prices and some are starting to shop at other stores. Higher employee turnover means bigger year end bonus.Regular shoppers know it since they hear all the dirt from previous and current employees. Even customers are angry that the employees are treated like trash. Customers listen to illegals and this store hires illegals because they work for lower wages. Working illegals, theft, employee abuse. She said less people means more bonuses. There is a huge amount of unemployed people, so organizations can afford to be picky when hiring employees. This is not the case with Goodwill, they just exploit new employees and they're expecting a high turn over rate, that's their hidden secret. Goodwill hires anyone because employees are expendable assets. San Antonio is a sanctuary city and Goodwill fits right in. Goodwill is following the left culture of pretending to stop theft without a security guard and it puts employees lives in danger. My friend said she is glad she doesn't work there anymore and sleeps better at night. Exploiting people for monetary gain is bad karma.
