Publix reviews

Management can be borderline abusive. They will provide begrudging assistance and express blame on the team for being incapable of managing an overwhelming rush hour in even the most busy department of their store. We'll be understaffed and unable to maintain a regular flow of the most popular selling items and management will still step back into the kitchen to wonder why you're incapable of making some extra item that corporate is experimenting with this week. Some will be quick to outright lie if they give you bad direction. They will not hesitate to single out an associate and blame them for the mistake of a manager.

Constant berating from management, being overworked, expectations higher than your actual job description without recognition or pay. Dealing with irate and immature customers. Babysitting teenage coworkers that don’t want to work, where you will get in trouble if someone else isn’t doing what they’re supposed to be doing. Constantly being short-staffed, and even though you’re not a manager, it’s YOUR fault and you have to fix it.
