Winn-Dixie Stores Employer Reviews

Everyday I went to work with a little burst of enthusiasm just knowing I was going to be with my co-workers. The management was very down to earth, always positive, looking for and focusing on individual strenghs. We went the extra mile to encourage and educate each other.

I worked in the Produce Department, my favorite department of the entire store. There were always new things to learn about the job, reviews and training on Fruits, Vegetables and other items' maintenance and freshness. The information provided made the experience pleasant and exciting. Which ultimately complemented the most enjoyable part of the job, – more...  helping customers and the satisfying feeling of knowing you helped them find exactly what the customer seeked. The Retail Store, every day would be brought to life by excellent associates and managers ever so helpful and friendly. if there were to be any draw-backs, I would have to say that it is only when we had ran out of products, until the next available delivery date. – less

Management treats you like you're an idiot, constantly reminding you how easy it is to fire you if you do anything wrong.
I took care of the 7 worst stores in their entire chain.
They just text you the service calls and you have to prioritize them so if anything is done wrong, management can blame you and not themselves.
The stores are in terrible condition, – more...  largely because they've had poorly trained, unprofessional technicians for years. In their pecking order, highly trained refrigeration technicians are classified a "warehouse maintenence" workers.
The stores leak refrigerant on an epic scale. Probably 75% of my time was spent trying to find and fix refrigerant leaks. Most of it was due to shoddy construction. The last week I was there, they spent $56,000 on refrigerant in one weekend. – less
