Grocery Outlet Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

There is no complaints. I have to do a job and the compensation comes with that. Im still waiting on the raise Roberto and Zully promised me and others at this location.

Fair balance of base, bonus and long term equity.

Comfortable retirement great opportunity family atmosphèr

health coverage, contribution to HSA and profit sharing (instead of matching) for 401K

Review from Sales Dept

Haven't got one of these yet.

Review from Sales Dept

Quarterly bonuses and low benefits costs

I have health insurance which is extremely nice.

Review from Sales Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

For starters, management opportunities should not be deflected due to retail store non-experience. hourly rate must be increased if more work duties are expected. Benefits such as; health, vision, dental should be provided instead of health plans offered by Grocery Outlet.

A lot of work for little pay

Get owner/operators in there that actually care about the store and employees.

I would bust my butt at this job and got no recognition while other people who slack/do the bare minimum are shown favortism/given promotions. I deserved better pay + more hours than what i was given. People who actually work there should be paid more

There are no benefits and the pay is low, even for managenent.

Review from Operations Dept

Its not a living wage. Even if i worked 40+ hours a week, i couldnt live off that wage.

No covid pay no holiday pay

Review from Product Dept

I feel undervalued because the new owners expect us to do more work than is possible during our shift. They don't want us to work overtime, but are angry when we cant finish what they've told us. Its not a matter of us not working hard, its that they're expectations are impssible with a small staff.

Don’t want to be cashi

There is no benefits. The pay is absolutely god awful. You will need a second job just to keep up with money. The managers get paid a dollar extra which is still under than most managers in other places. Even if the benefits were better, I would not want to stay with the owners

My boss could care less about his employees

There really is no way to feel valued as an operator.

I felt undervauled because I did so much for this job, and that they fire me for something as little as me calling in because I had an emergency, and because I was the only customer service and they dont think ahead, they didnt have anyone to "close up"

The owners don't care so in turn the staff doesn't care. They also under pay and skimp your check and won't prove to staff how they got jipped

Review from Customer Support Dept

I have been a manager of all the departments at one time or another and continue to make poor wages of $11/hr

Review from Product Dept

We're paid minimum wage even though we've been there for years. Seniority means nothing and these newbies don't even pull their weight. They come in for a paycheck and we break our backs doing the actual labor to keep things running without any recognition for it. We're treated like minimum wagers.

Review from Sales Dept

if they raised the pay and got a whole different family to run the store

Review from Customer Support Dept

Being paid for what I am really worth would make me feel best. Working here for over 3 years with no pay advancement is not encouraging.

Review from Customer Support Dept

The company will pay you well under what you're worth and try to justify it because each store is local and family owned.

Our store is understaffed and the department heads are so underpaid they are looking elsewhere for employment. No help from management.
