Great place to work!

Pros

People are very respectful not only to the customers but to each other on a regular basis. That makes it a lot less stressful to work here.

Cons

Pay is low, but that seems to be true of all retail in the south. Fluctuation of the schedule makes it difficult to anticipate your next day off.

Pros

With the economy up or down it should be a very stable place to work, with not any lay offs in sight.

Cons

The benefits are good but not as good as they used to be in comparison with the rest of the country.

Pros

Publix offers great benefits to full time employees. I love people so its perfect for me. Most employees are friendly. Open seven days and late hours so its easy to get your 40 in. No two days are ever the same. It is nice to feel that you are making a positive difference in someones day.

Cons

Publix seems to promote men more quickly. Minorities also move up fast. The older you are the less they are inclinded to want to invest training in you. Its not impossible to get through all that but you have to work hard and be persistant. The fluctuating hours can be hard on your sleep schedule.
