Reviews about Pay & benefits for Warehouse Worker at Metal Supermarkets
Best enviroment for a start up work foundation
They lack benifits so if your single or married with no kids this job would be awesome. Management is pretty much the same no matter where you go. So no judgment there. Great job to have overall.

Pros

Cons
No benefits, job is contract not full time, no overtime

Was ok to work until Covid-19 hit
● Work-life balance
Work is mon-fri if you like a set schedule
● Pay & benefits
Don't expect any kind of pay raise after you start.
● Job security and advancement
Zero room for advancement
● Management
Supervisor was a good guy but did not work well under pressure.
● Overall
I have worked for big corporations before and know what to expect as far as employee treatment but I did not expect the same from the family owned Metal Supermarkets location in Salt Lake City. I feel like the owner only cared about the money numbers and not the actual work that went into the jobs. Safety was a constant issue as the tiny warehouse was packed full of so much metal material that we had to literally climb over it just to get to things. We had to complete large orders with minimal shop staff and zero space to stage the completed orders. The workload increased during the Covid-19 pandemic no doubt to take advantage of the fact that they deemed the place "essential" and work was more difficult to find. Covid-19 standards were also taken very lightly by the owners. We had facemasks in the shop with enough room to social distance but the front office was different as the salesman were allowed to wear their masks around the neck standing and working shoulder to shoulder and not social distancing.
Pros:
- Paid holidays
- Consistant work schedule
Cons:
- Unsafe work environment
- Covid-19 standards not taken seriously
- Health and dental benefits are terrible
- You are just a money making number
- Low pay, high workload
