Publix Employer Reviews

Good people, but horrible management while I was there. Got pulled back in to the office to get yelled at because I complained about a 30 minute shift. Would work there again, but not at the same store.

Learned to handle large sums of money, deal with difficult customers, adapt to different management types, advancement in status plus annual raises.

This is a great company to work for. Each day is a fast paced work day with always something to do. The employees are kind people sho are easy to get along with. Being able to work for the company has taught me time management, multi-tasking, and communicating effectively with all types of people. Overall had a great experience working for this company.

Dealing with customers all day. Making sure the customer is feeling welcomed and comfortable with our store.

Management and staff encourages teamwork through positive reinforcement.

Cashiered, and when I left I was training to be a customer service manager. Very clean enviroment which I loved, but alot of the management were not so nice.

Bagging groceries, cashiering, custodial duties, doing stock work, leveling the store, picking up shopping carts,

Cashiering for shifts up to 12 hours. Providing customer service and upholding reliable name of the Publix brand.

A typical day involves stocking the shelves, helping customers, and managing my staff. Management is well trained. Co-workers are well trained. Hardest part is retail hours. Enjoy most aspects of the job.

I started working there when I was 15 years old. I learned alot from working for the company. I was able to learn how to planagram and work has a team to get things done in a timely manner. My coworkers were always fun to be around so that helped the mood a lot of the store. Management was helpful in making sure that you understood day to day action – more...  there. – less

new items and answering their questions.

Typical day involved coming in early and bagging groceries, sweeping and mopping the isles, occasionally helping stock shelves, cleaning bathrooms, taking out trash, collecting carts and helping customers load their groceries into their vehicles.

It had been a fun job everyday. I learn different things every day about customer and products. The manager is reasonable. Co-worker treat people like family. There no hard part to the job, just have to have good will. The most enjoyable part is close time cause we all come together to the store tidy.

Worked little over 2 years with Publix and although I did enjoy helping customer and doing my job. There was little room for advancement even after being trained for everything up to a management position they decided it would be cheaper to allow me to do the extra work with no increase in pay/ or advancement. Co-workers were by far the best thing everyone – more...  is nice a friendly easy place to start working. Management was very difficult/complicated as they are always moving managers around and most people after being promoted end up getting a demotion because of an unfair accident. – less

When I first started at Publix I off loaded ovens at the bakery plant, worked in the control room then to the parts dept. Ordered parts for equipment use in the store. Keep inventory ,ran reports for management, documented hazardous waste. It was a pleasant place to work would have never left but I wanted to pursue a nursing career.

I was responsible for changing prices on items through-out the grocery store twice a week and weekly sales flyer items once a week, using a scan gun and price labeler. I created computerized sale signs for weekly sale items and all in-store specials. I tracked and lowered prices on all discounted and discontinued items using the price scanner. I regularly – more...  scanned all items in the store to make sure they were scanning correctly at the registers. I worked closely with store manager to ensure all special displays were scanning correctly and signs were displayed. I assisted store customers as needed and filled in as cashier as needed. – less

Great place for a first time job or a career. I've learned a lot that will benefit me in my future career choices. The job can be pretty tedious. If you just give in and take some pride in your job though, it can actually be fun at times. The rumors are true, the benefits are amazing. Absolutely take advantage of the 401k and the Publix stock!

A day at work is always rewarding and I enjoy working with the Public.

people are always interesting, whether you work with them, or you wait or them! As in life, you always have the good, the bad and the ugly!
The customers are really enjoyable to work with! They are very different in lifestyles and temperment.
No two days are ever the same, which makes the job interesting!
