Pros
The associates who work at the warehouse are some of the most down-to-Earth folks I've ever encountered. They come in to work and will be a great influence to you and your fellow associates. Though sometimes they can be rough around the edges and borderline nasty, I love almost everyone there! Supervisors are fantastic as well! They really do care, and will help you if you need it. I never personally had a problem with any supervisor in my year and a half working there!
Cons
Corporate. Corporate is the primary reason I didn't want to continue my career at Publix. The people over at Lakeland are the real bosses over you, not the person you report to. They have final say over everything, including your supervisor's words. It makes me livid knowing the people I interact with everyday don't get to truly do anything with your position because your baseline performance matters to the people 50 cities away from you. You can be a positive reinforcement for your associates, help out in other ways other than your job, or even just take a minute or two to talk with someone, it doesn't matter. Your percentage is the only thing keeping your job. I'm a person, not a number.
