Pros
Publix is a good company with good policies and the potential for growth. If you come into the job while still a high school student, you may well never have to work anywhere else.
Cons
The problem comes when you are an adult who respects the company and would like to work there. The insistence on starting people as part time, without a clear way to improve their situation, sucks. Telling people that you went from bagboy to store manager in 'only' 15 years is great, really, but as someone who already has a wife and kids, I can't wait that long. Sunday will be my last day with Publix.
