Pros

pub subs for lunch, friendly coworkers

Cons

little to no technician help, most full time techs have left for better jobs. expect to work the majority of your 11-12 hour shift by yourself. work environment has become more metrics based and they're constantly on you for not meeting metrics. they want more from you and give you less. pay is less than other retail companies and the work life has become more stressful than ever. the insurance is a joke with high premiums. most pharmacists there have been with the company for 10 years plus and are only staying due to stock accumulated over time, the rest are new pharmacists who think this is better than other retailers and learn quickly that it's a terrible work environment

Pros

Pharmacy and people that work there are very sweet.

Cons

I was offered a job there.The offer was part time.I think because Publix is a grocery store the hours fluctuate with the flow of business.I was told I would work most of the time in the pharmacy, then could work a day or two a week in the front of the store....At my drug screening I asked about how they would schedule that so I could get 40 hours, the manager I was talking to looked like I grew a third eye and demanded to know who told me I could work 40 hours...then they brought in the store manager who very arrogantly told me I might get 30 hours if I was lucky and was up to snuff...Needless to say I told them to stick it.However the pharmacy and the people who work there are great....
