Ocean State Job Lot reviews

Management is horrible! Poor training . Managers do not take responsibility for their mistakes.

Management is disorganized with a mob mentality, if you're on the "family" you get away with everything including repeated no call no shows whilst other employees are automatically terminated for such behavior. Until you're in management expect to work your back end off with little to no recognition and even less money, if you somehow do move up to management expect to be frequently transferred between locations (even locations hours away) with less than a weeks notice (of course this won't happen if you're a favorite of your DM) The company is cheap, corporate management rude and work loads stressful. Expect to have permanent joint damage, constantly asked to do 2 to 4 man lifts on your own, more often than not you'll be asked to move 2ton pallets with a hand jack (rated at less than that weight) or carry out large awkward items by yourself (gazebos and grills for example) This place is an OSHA nightmare, sharp rusty shelves, outdated equipment, expired food that corporate insists is still safe to sell, no proper safety equipment, overloaded (and collapsing) aisles, unsafe heat levels in summer and cold in winter due to faulty hvac and no control over thermostats (corporate controls temperatures from RI to save money) If your store loses power expect to be forced to stock shelves in the dark by flashlight.
