Pros

I worked in the Information Technology division of Publix Super Markets Inc. The reason I went to work at publix was to get training in working in a development environment. Publix is very team oriented and applies the textbook strategy of development. So here you get the feel of everything from the business group to the programmer. It is a breading ground for developers. Youhave opportunities to learn different systems that are used on a daily basis by the company.

Cons

Some of the downsides is having to work 45 hours per week to recieve the year end bonus from the company.

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.
