Pros

Publix has a huge emphasis on providing a fantastic employee experience, and they succeed. Processes are clearly laid out, chains of responsibility are clear and documented and departments work well together without the usual corporate politics. Great place for a long and rewarding career.

Cons

As a retailer the focus is less on innovation in technology and more about using proven tools and methods to drive business value. Personally, not a huge con, but for the more technically oriented looking to build something disruptive this may be a challenge.

Pros

Good compensation including not just standard pay, but also end of year bonus 80 hours for hourly associates, 8% of your annual earnings granted to you in free company stock thru which quarterly dividends are paid, ok 401k, and gift card and other associate coupons. Good stability and growth. Good company culture.

Cons

Can be slow and resistant to change. Uses some antiquated systems and software that should have been replaced years ago. Does some things that don't make sense. Some managers can be good, while others not very good. Although these cons may be true for a lot of companies. All roads eventually lead to Lakeland where they are headquartered. Geography can be a big one if you are not a Florida native. If you don't want to live in Florida for some legitimate reasons, there can be limited job options in other states, especially if you aren't interested in retail or warehouse jobs. Standard retail negatives about not having a lot of holidays off.
