Publix reviews

- Managers who consistently are shown to perform poorly are not demoted, but rather just moved to another store. - In efforts to cut expenses, not everyone who deserve raises will get one. This leads people to "burn out" .. Many really good workers cease to perform cordially knowing no raise is in store. - Management often seems to lack a central focus. You'll be told how to "correctly" do something about 15 different ways. - Backstab attitude. - Associates are trained poorly, because they are too cheap to have a person decently trained. - The level of service corporate demands are impossible to meet given corporate's weekly hour restrictions.

The pay is below average in all departments. Its more than Kroger but thats not saying much. Opportunities for quick advancement are limited. The downside to Publix is that they retain too many people in the departments, this overextends the hours available making it hard to make a living if you're part time. The current raise increment is 15 cents for an above average evaluation, used to be 25 cents. Publix has had instances where it has rehired members of management who acquired a misdemeanor conviction stealing from their own store location.
