Pros
- For the most part, easy - You feel part of the family in most stores - The pay is too terrible for what the job requires you do. - VERY flexible work scheduling. Can change workable hours any time (though not advised). Great for any students who need to take a few days off, even in a row.
Cons
- Majority of managers are only concerned with themselves, not looking to push for others. - If you aren't perfect, it feels like you are hated. However, often times employees with clearly worse work ethic than you get treated better. It's a roller coaster at Publix. - Promotion is a lottery. Think hard work and perseverance will get you a guaranteed spot in Publix management? Think again! It is an absolute coin toss, and I have seen many great managers get surpassed by complete idiots, because they knew the right manager. - It is a thankless job, unless you are a lucky few with a great manager. They are out there. Don't expect as many compliments as the amount of complaints.
