Public is dumming down

Pros

Lots of stores all over FL. Customers are fun.

Cons

This company is living off it,s reputation. I spent five years at Public. I was promised full time a hundred times but it never happened. Time and time again promises were broken with no regard for me or my family. I,m fifty nine years old. It was the only place I ever worked where I could not get ahead by working hard and showing up on time every day. Truly a rude place to work. NOT what founder George had in mind. After five year I quit.

Cons

Benefits only available if you're full time, and it could take years for that Easily overworked Most associates get their hours by begging Overhiring of minors Retail management is scared of corporate and won't stand up when they disagree Corporate often visits and attempts to fix problems that dont exist
