It will work but it sounds like metal is grinding in it.

http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-repair-and-install-Garbage-disposal.html Use vacuum cleaner to see if something is loose. Otherwise, a noisy disposal that works is functional and not dangerous... but annoying. Life of disposal is probably shortened since the bearing seal could have failed letting water in, and bearings could be rusted. Replace disposal if noise bother you.

How to fix a stuffed garbage disposal?

It should have come with a Allen wrench. Be sure it is off. Insert it in the bottom into the center hole. Move it back and forth several times until it frees up. Remove wrench and try, you may have to do this several times. Also be sure the unit is reset before turning on. If it does nothing nor makes nay noise it is probably tripped.
