Pros

Simple, easy work. Rules laid cleanly for following. Good relationships and attitudes towards co-workers.

Cons

Publix creates an environment which makes customers feel entitled, making customers hard to deal with. Management does not care about the small man. Publix promotes from within, even if the people don’t qualify. They hire people with the intention of making them work full time even if they only agreed to work part time, even if they are disabled and unable to work full time.
