Pros

growing company, treat your employees as good as they treat your customers.don't drink the cool aid...don't stay and get sucked in by there B S they could care less about you and I. The really have some store manager issues as well as Dept manager who where promoted from Fl just because they were willing to move. Very sad look from the inside out....

Cons

over worked part timers working full time and not given benefits. Your just a number there. Bringing in experienced managers up from Fl to NC causing a high turnover because they treat the employees like dirt. it was my worst experience in my 30 year career. pay is not equal to the job at other companies.

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.
