Are Publix really a good company to work for?

Apr 22, 2008 Publix complaint |
Ok, I work for Publix. For nearly 4 years. I am a hard worker. I've worked in five different stores, the store where I'm working at present is the best I've being with. My problem with Publix is most manager can be your best buddies but at the same time they are slowly twisting the knife in your back. I've being denied promotion, only been off sick once. Receive excellent performance reports every six months. I finally had to call Human Resources to get some advice. The problem with this 12 - 13 week bonus, is store managers only look out for themselves. Do they really care about the worker, I know they care for their own people (family; friends and other store mangers next of kins) I've worked with a few and all have said the same thing, if it wasn't for the shares and the bonus money, they would never work for Publix. Would like to know other people views

It sounds like you are more concerned with others progression and not your own. I came to work having no previous experience and new no one and in 8 years I am now a store manager. Hard work is where it is at. Invest in others and you will show how much you care.

WELL TO HONEST WITH ALL, PUBLIX MANAGERS DO LOOK OUT FOR THEMSELVES BUT THIER WERE ONLY A FEW OF US WHO LOOKED OUT FOR THE ASSOCIATES,BEWARE THE FIRST TIME YOU STAND UP(AS A MANAGER) YOU WILL BE FORCED OUT OF YOUR POSITION.I WORKED FOR PUBLIX FOR 7 YEARS 4 YEARS I HELD A ASST.DELI MANAGERS POSITION.NOT TO MENTION THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF WAS IN 1 OF THE BUSIEST IN SARASOTA.THE MOMENT I WENT TO BAT FOR MISTREATED ASSOCIATE,FROM THAT DAY ON I WAS TREATED SO VERY BADLY THAT I WALKED AWAY FROM THE *** HOLE !!!!!! ALSO 4 YEARS OF SCORING HIGH PASSES ON THE *** TEST BECAUSE I DID NOT WANT TO PLAY THIER POLITICS I COULD NOT GET PROMOTED TO DELI MANAGER. BUT THEY WILL PROMOTE SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T LIKE TO DEAL WITH ASSOCIATE ISSUES SUCH IS "RACIAL". BUT SHE PLAYED THE POLITICAL GAME. SO FORM YOUR OWN OPINION ABOUT THAT!!!!

Well, by the sound of it, you need to go back to school and learn how to properly use grammar. Your level of literacy could be a reason for being held back. I've been with Publix for almost 3 years and have been promoted to CSS within a year, even though I was only 16 at the time. Within a few months, I will be CSTL. It's called hard work and motivation.
