Pros

You get to smile a lot. Stock. You can chit chat and still get paid.

Cons

The boss agrees with customers over employees because "the customer is always right". The employees will treat the customers with high value like queens and kings, but each other with hate and betrayal (two-faced) Customers abuse the nice policy and act like babies and cry to management about how they are not worshiped in every step of the store from entry to exit.

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.
