Pros

Pay is good for most part time positions, you basically call the ball on your own schedule, it's easy to make friends, and the benefits and opportunity for growth are outstanding!

Cons

Promises made about company policy vary from store to store, management makes questionable decisions often, they can be harsh occasionally, and the customers can really test your nerves.

Pros

Publix has a terrific retirement program among other benefits and offers ample vacation time to store managers. Even down to young front-service clerks, free stock and tuition reimbursement are available. Quarterly bonuses are a regular cash-flow for all employees who work 1000 hrs per year. Health insurance for employees working 30+hrs/wk. Friendly work environment and great upper-management, company is going in the right direction.

Cons

It takes many years to work up to the store manager level, often requiring years of service as a cashier, then office staff, then team leader, then assistant dept, then dept, then assistant store, finally store. But the compensation amounts for each are relatively strong, without requiring a degree.
