Publix Super Markets

Grocery Stocker

October 2018 • Sarasota, FL

What I liked

I really enjoyed that I was able to learn about the Publix company and what it means to be a part of a company like that. Everybody was super friendly and helpful to me. They had patience with me while I learned everything about my department.

What I wish was different

There is not anything I wish would have been different. I was quite content with what Publix had to offer me as a new employee.

Advice

I would like to share that as long as you give it your best effort that there is not much you could ask from yourself. Just know that you are doing your best, and take time to be yourself if you feel overwhelmed from everything else. While at Publix, when I felt overwhelmed, I would take a quick break and I knew that I needed it and it would be helpful.
