Pros

great people to work with. great customers, great products to display, great customer service training.

Cons

very political mgmt if your liked you will go far, i did but i afvocated for better pay for my employees and that did not go over well. I was lynched after that, just as fast as they can make you, they will tear you down, pay isnt any good for salary jobs and employee raises are nickled and dimed, i had 18 yrs with the company and i do not reccommend it for long term they will want you there 24/7 and work you till you drop for little pay.

Pros

-Publix offers great benefits for employees. -The group of people I worked with at my store were awesome. -I was able to realize that becoming a pharmacist is not my career of choice. -The ability to gain both knowledge and skills that I previously did not have.

Cons

-Never was given enough technician hours or additional help. I constantly felt that I needed to choose between patient safety or completing all that tasks for the day to please corporate; I chose patient safety every time. -No room for growth unless you get your PharmD degree. -Open pharmacy (when counting pills we often got interrupted by customers). -Angry & Needy customers, constantly!! It is retail, so what do you expect?! -Corporate wouldn't listen when we requested needing more help behind the counter. -I worked over 33 hours each week and never got promoted to full time; when half of the time I was already working a full time schedule. -They could do a better job of being environmentally friendly. -Hard to get time off because only a couple of technicians work in each store. -Compensation is not great for pharmacy technicians in general.
