Pros

Pride themselves on Customer Service. Have products that other stores may not carry. Can special order item for customers.

Cons

Most of the benefits that were given to employees are being stripped away one by one. A good number of people in management (in my district) are quitting or retiring and that raises a big RED FLAG.

Pros

Loved the people who worked at Publix, loved my store manager, thoroughly enjoyed my job and the interaction I had with customers. My boss/pharmacist was absolutely awesome. I felt like I gained a lot of experience and knowledge from this job, especially as a student. You really feel like you're a part of a team to accomplish multiple goals. Overall, in-house was awesome. I loved my job. It's just senior management at corporate was the problem.

Cons

Severely understaffed, at least in the pharmacy. Mainly due to upper level corporate pharmacy management. Only one pharmacist to crank out almost 500 prescriptions per day and when they would ask for overlap (help), they were commonly told no and that corporate didn't have anyone to send them. They seem to be trying to push out the older generation to bring in the newer generation. This seems to be an "across the board" thing.
