      Pros

      Publix is a great company to work for and the benefits/bonus structure isn't too bad either. Stores are remodeled on a continuous basis so you always are around the corner from a refresh. Publix is trying hard to advance and keep up with the competition when it comes to the pharmacy. Programs are always implemented to add services to customers and to provide a better selection of offerings.

      Cons

      Implementation of some new programs has resulted in a decrease in tech hours allowed. This comes after previously being told by management that our programs will succeed where Walgreens failed because we won't be cutting tech hours. A year later, the cuts have begun. With an increase in services offered and customers, the cuts make getting all of the daily workload nearly impossible. Metrics have been increasingly focused on like other companies and have been used to discipline and move some pharmacists. Some supervisors may vary, but as the management structure in Publix has changed, it seems that the company wants to be like Walgreens and CVS in both the positive aspects, and the negative ones.

      Pros

      Amazing 401K, free stock after one year of employment, health insurance is very good for part-time employees if only getting it for yourself, management always approves time off requests, hours are always available, will work around school schedules, tuition reimbursement program, will reimburse you for gas for work-related expenses as needed and will put you in a hotel as needed for work-related reasons that are more than 50 miles from your home.

      Cons

      Not every store is the same, some stores are run better than others, some managers look down upon people with disabilities, and some see people with disabilities the same as someone without disabilities, they are very big about favoritism, you have to work a lot to earn a vacation, the company does not give out sick time and full-time gets the most benefits and is next to impossible to get full-time. Also, you practically have to be a former employee with a clean record or related in some way to a current employee to get a job with the company though Kentucky Publix's don't quite function that way.
