The vision of our 501(c3) nonprofit organization is that ALL people have the opportunity to reach their fullest potential through the power of work.Goodwill Industries of Middle Tennessee is based in Nashville, Tenn. The agency serves 48 counties throughout Middle and West Tennessee, operating 30 retail stores and two outlet stores, about 53 Donation Express Centers and 13 Career Solutions Centers. The nonprofit is one of Tennessee’s largest employers of people with disabilities with more than 45 percent of our workforce reporting some type of disability or disadvantage. Although affiliated with Goodwill Industries International in Rockville, Md., we operate independently through our own governing board of directors. Goodwill accepts gently-used items that donors no longer want, need or use. Those items are sold either in our retail stores or online at onlinegoodwill.com. Revenue from the sale of donated goods helps fund job training services and programs provided by Goodwill Career Solutions. In addition to retail sales, Goodwill depends on several other revenue sources, including state and local grants.
While some employees are praised for their friendliness and helpfulness, others have been reported as rude and unprofessional, leading to mixed customer experiences.

Team members are great but the management at this location is the absolute worst I’ve experienced. I tried to ask a simple question about an item that wasn’t priced and instead of helping me the manager stated “I don’t have time for you people “ very unprofessional.

Kristen does a really good job. I am so glad that you have a really good worker. She’s dedicated to her job and I believe she’s probably been at this location the longest I can remember. Keep up the good work.
