Pros

i came from Albertson's due to the buy out. i'll have to admit i was pretty scared of the change but the people and management i met at MY PUBLIX have been great to me so far. As a single parent they have worked with me to allow me to be there for my family and still provide for them. I love the hidden benefits such as the bonuses everyone gets for each inventory and the end of year bonus. i love how we are kept informed of our benefits with paid meetings and how we are so involved with the community. the people i work with and the customers i help all make me love going to work. the raises are nice too.

Cons

nothing really bad to say, just a couple like shrink and lost prevention i really wish there was a way to stop the return scams and the high volume of theft.

Pros

Kids love Publix. I love kids and working with the public.

Cons

I have worked at two stores. My first store had great management. Our manager always jumped in and worked any job, bagging, cashier, stocking or whatever needed to be done. My current store has horrible management. My current store is like working in a soap opera. Employee drama and their personal issues invade our working environment. Our store manager needs to WORK, not just stare at his TV in his office and call for all service personnel to come to the front.

Pros

Stock given to all employees who are vested. Always promote from within. competitive salaries for key positions.

Cons

Difficult to achieve full time status. Promoting from within causes qualified people to look elsewhere for a job.
