Pros

Excellent benefits, bonuses were a plus

Cons

Working in Lakeland I commuted from Orlando and for the pay it just was not worth it. Most of the people in the department were there for years so they were very comfortable and would only do the minimum.

Thank you for your honest review and your former service to Publix. Bear in mind that year-end Publix shares are a great perk to those with the company for one year or longer, in addition to competitive wages. Good luck to you. ^ MS

Pros

Amazing 401K, free stock after one year of employment, health insurance is very good for part-time employees if only getting it for yourself, management always approves time off requests, hours are always available, will work around school schedules, tuition reimbursement program, will reimburse you for gas for work-related expenses as needed and will put you in a hotel as needed for work-related reasons that are more than 50 miles from your home.

Cons

Not every store is the same, some stores are run better than others, some managers look down upon people with disabilities, and some see people with disabilities the same as someone without disabilities, they are very big about favoritism, you have to work a lot to earn a vacation, the company does not give out sick time and full-time gets the most benefits and is next to impossible to get full-time. Also, you practically have to be a former employee with a clean record or related in some way to a current employee to get a job with the company though Kentucky Publix's don't quite function that way.
