Pros

friendly people, very clean store, most customers are nice and respectful. raises if you are on time a lot.

Cons

no full time in the 6 yrs only because I am able to work from 7am to 11pm , which is not fair in my eyes because I have a son at home.

Pros

There is nothing good about Publix warehouse, management is horrible, didn't even know who I was when I first started.

Cons

Everything. Long hours, early mornings, lower pay than competition. I was fired for missing 4 days within my first 90 for having a major surgery on my stomach to stop a severe pain I was having. As if I went to the doctor and requested to have it because I didn't want to work. Managements words to me were "you're a good employee who got caught in the middle of an unforgiving rule" HA!

Pros

Higher than average pay rate, better quality customers, more departments to transfer to and master in an effort to move up. Amazing benefits.

Cons

Managment is often times I'll educated and not equipped to handle their departments, wrote ups are fairly common...for everything. Full timers are thrust to the forefront and expected to lead, even if they're still in training. They have little or no understanding of disabilities.
