Publix reviews

Managers treat you like slaves. It is not at all what they promise. I worked 3 years busting my back for the company, I had to fight for full time even though I earned it. It normally takes any where from 3-5 years to get full time and "that's just the way Publix is"...unless you know someone. You get great time off but requesting it is like pulling teeth, always a problem. They also expect you to never be sick even though your allowed certain sick days. Its not at all a family environment. The favoritism is disgustingly obvious and again its who you know not what you know. I passed the managers test with flying colors and was told I was more likely to get promoted because I am a woman. But then I did not show up the day after Irma which erased the 6 days straight (50hour week) I pulled right before. Its just never enough for the narcissists that manage the place. And HR doesn't exist in this company. I called everyday like 5 times for 2 weeks straight and left messages to report the hostility I received after upsetting the store manager. Its sad, I was so passionate to be apart of such a successful company, but if they don't do something about their middle managers the company will not last. No one will line up to work for a company who only provides part time jobs and also treats their people like dirt.

Terrible Work Life Balance! Horrid long hours and never enough staff for grocery department.
