Pros

I would defiently say the best reasons to work for Publix is for the benifits. The health insurance is not only cheap and affordable but also good. I have worked for 5 companies in my life and they were by far the best and cheapest.

Cons

It is hard for most employees to get full time employment. I was able to get full time because of the position I was in but if you are looking to do cashier or bagging you will never see full time. Everyone I worked with only could get around 20-25 hours. If you get close to full time they cut you back a lot.

Pros

Management is very good. Phenomenal work environment.

Cons

The hours for part-time were not fixed, so it was a challenge to juggle some schedules given at times.

Pros

Amazing 401K, free stock after one year of employment, health insurance is very good for part-time employees if only getting it for yourself, management always approves time off requests, hours are always available, will work around school schedules, tuition reimbursement program, will reimburse you for gas for work-related expenses as needed and will put you in a hotel as needed for work-related reasons that are more than 50 miles from your home.

Cons

Not every store is the same, some stores are run better than others, some managers look down upon people with disabilities, and some see people with disabilities the same as someone without disabilities, they are very big about favoritism, you have to work a lot to earn a vacation, the company does not give out sick time and full-time gets the most benefits and is next to impossible to get full-time. Also, you practically have to be a former employee with a clean record or related in some way to a current employee to get a job with the company though Kentucky Publix's don't quite function that way.
