Pros

Mandatory lunch, a little better pay, weekly pay, stock option

Cons

A lot. Was not recognized, didn't as many raises as I was told before I got the job, had to bother upper management for performance evals, if you have an inch, they would take a mile, all the time. My management was lazy and clueless in the deli. By the way we don't always enjoy being nice, we have to or we get written up or forces.

Pros

Amazing 401K, free stock after one year of employment, health insurance is very good for part-time employees if only getting it for yourself, management always approves time off requests, hours are always available, will work around school schedules, tuition reimbursement program, will reimburse you for gas for work-related expenses as needed and will put you in a hotel as needed for work-related reasons that are more than 50 miles from your home.

Cons

Not every store is the same, some stores are run better than others, some managers look down upon people with disabilities, and some see people with disabilities the same as someone without disabilities, they are very big about favoritism, you have to work a lot to earn a vacation, the company does not give out sick time and full-time gets the most benefits and is next to impossible to get full-time. Also, you practically have to be a former employee with a clean record or related in some way to a current employee to get a job with the company though Kentucky Publix's don't quite function that way.
