Pros

pay is decent. Uniforms provided.they will schedule within your availability.close to home. great customer service.

Cons

for part times most of us do not get consistant good hours.sometimes you might get low hours.In order to get retail bonus you have to work 250 hours a quarter.for some this is hard to get if you are not one of their favorites.hard to stand long days but low hours..managers that sometimes do not work but just play around.loss of health insurance for many due to lack of hours to maintain coverage.for me publix is basically becoming a no benefit job

Pros

- More often then not, they work with you on flexibility.

Cons

- Managers who consistently are shown to perform poorly are not demoted, but rather just moved to another store. - In efforts to cut expenses, not everyone who deserve raises will get one. This leads people to "burn out" .. Many really good workers cease to perform cordially knowing no raise is in store. - Management often seems to lack a central focus. You'll be told how to "correctly" do something about 15 different ways. - Backstab attitude. - Associates are trained poorly, because they are too cheap to have a person decently trained. - The level of service corporate demands are impossible to meet given corporate's weekly hour restrictions.
