Pros

They give you 35 hours a part-time (just enough so they don't have to give you benefits)

Cons

Salaries start at around $10 and hour and even when you get full time it only goes to $12. They offer not discounts to employees of any kind. You even have to pay for soda fountain drinks. No one who works at Publix's (besides management) shops at Publix. It's too expensive. They say the employees own the company because they give you stock. They only give you stock after a year of employment and you have to pay for the rest of the stock yourself. Not really an option for the $10-$12 an hour employee.

Pros

There are. It really any pros that come to mind if you are an young adult trying to build up so that you can be financially stable.

Cons

I was hired on part-time at $9hr definitely not enough to pay all the bills but it's a part time job I wouldn't expect anything more. Until I was told I was not allowed to get a second part time job... even if that meant bills didn't get paid. No flexiablity at all. Nothing like working here is advertised. And there is no chance of fulltime.
