Pros

If you want to work long term the retirement plan is ridiculously great. Good pay rates for employees. Good kind of people employed there. Usually schedule pretty good hours for their part time positions depending on your availability. Full shifts instead of little 3 hour wastes of time.

Cons

Expect a great deal from you. Will complain if you don't get work done and complain if you don't invest a lot of time into speaking to all customers in the department.

Pros

Amazing 401K, free stock after one year of employment, health insurance is very good for part-time employees if only getting it for yourself, management always approves time off requests, hours are always available, will work around school schedules, tuition reimbursement program, will reimburse you for gas for work-related expenses as needed and will put you in a hotel as needed for work-related reasons that are more than 50 miles from your home.

Cons

Not every store is the same, some stores are run better than others, some managers look down upon people with disabilities, and some see people with disabilities the same as someone without disabilities, they are very big about favoritism, you have to work a lot to earn a vacation, the company does not give out sick time and full-time gets the most benefits and is next to impossible to get full-time. Also, you practically have to be a former employee with a clean record or related in some way to a current employee to get a job with the company though Kentucky Publix's don't quite function that way.
