Cashier

May 2019 • Miami, FL

What I liked

The location of my job is very convenient and the pay is not bad for an entry position. The customers actually have not been hard to deal with either.

What I wish was different

First of all, I wish there was an employee discount because Publix is known to be a bit expensive. The orientation is a bit lackluster and does not teach a lot of the actual skills an employee would need for the job. Cashier training itself left much to be desired and I noticed myself learning the skills needed on the job, which is confusing because with handling money and coupons you would expect Publix to want their employees to be well-versed before actually handling them.

Advice

In closing the store, expect your team to not be helpful and expect to stay later than the hours you are actually scheduled. It is a hassle that Publix boasts about respecting customers' time but they clearly do not respect the time of their employees, many of whom are full-time students who have other commitments outside of Publix.

I enjoyed working with my fellow associates. I got to know a lot of them and felt like I worked in a welcoming environment. The customers were overwhelmingly nice folks.

The inconsistency of hours certain weeks was a bit of a challenge but it fluctuated throughout my time working at Publix. The hours were satisfactory for the most part but certain times of the year they got a bit more scarce.
