Pros

Great benefits and retirement your retirement can be either just publix stock or you can do 401k which is also Publix stock

Cons

Nepotism father in positions to help son even when evidence points to the fact that the son is either lazy , incompetent or unintelligent. They say to be like Mr George but they couldn't carry his shoes. They have found a way to be 100% productive or not. Mr George cared not only about making money but also about his customers and employees. As the company grows they are more like Walmart, Bilo, Food Lion then the would ever want to admit. They started treating management as numbers not as owners. They tell you to have a work life balance but make you work 50+ hours a week. If you write down what you are working now that you are totally salaried you are probably working closer to 60.

Pros

Good insurance, competitive pay check.

Cons

In the last year, I have seen 4 older women pharmacists in my immediate area fired. They are happy to ditch long term employees for the newby pharmacists that are flooding the market. They also required unreimbursed returns to run flu-shot clinics, diabetic nutrition seminars or inventory. Publix is taking great advantage of the pharmacist over load in the market.
