Pros

They give you company stock after 6 months of employment

Cons

You are hired part time no benefits and you will likely remain part time your whole career there unless the management really likes you then they will help you get full time. There are stores in Publix where management does not want to train or advance any employees unfortunately I was in one of them. Ther were people with 15 years with the company and waiting fulltime benefits. If you get hired by Publix expect to work part time whatevere hours they want to give you, It wont be over 25, and live on part time pay for your whole carreer.

Pros

Pay and bonus structure is competitive.

Cons

Work life balance, company has double standards for those wanting to move up. -No consistency, moving target in terms of moving up. Made to feel guilty if you have family challenges that may need your undivided attention in terms to calling out. Once your a manager, they seem to put you anywhere close to your home. One time a manager was placed 57 miles, one way from home (60 miles requires relocation package). When topic is brought up to be closer to home, the response is, "you know this was part of the perks of being a manager".
