Pros

Stock and other benefits

Cons

Crooked management , people with disabilities never got promoted. I aked for full time and the management at the store at the time basicly told me to clean the delly and the bakery and if i do good i might get full time later on , so i did what he wanted , everyone at the delly said i was doing a great job and need full time but i never got full time , so one day i was told to clean the dumpster so i thought if i clean the dumpster i would defintly get fulltime , one of the customer service management people was helping me clean the dumpster so i asked the this person why would they choose you to help me? and she said he didnt i chose to help , you were going to be on your own , so i said why would the store he send me on my own? She said because he thinks you are a good cleaner , so i was used , i had learning disabilities also , i never got full time , i gave them way more then enough time , 5 years! there was plenty of times where people got promoted over me that only worked for a month or two , i feel like they did not promote me because of my disabilities. The higher ups are very crooked and dont treat everyone equal. Cons , if you have disabilities , you have to work better then people without disabilities to get full time , higher ups treat you like garbage , they dont treat people with disabilities equally and if you have disabilities the higher up will promote people that dont have disabilities over you. he will not let anyone transfer stores , even if you live next door to your publix , (its a dictatordhip)

Pros

Great benefits, advancement in company (depending on if managers like you), will pay for certain college classes, and stock options.

Cons

Hard work doesn’t always mean you will advance, management, very underpaid, no work life balance, it goes against you when you call off work.
