Constructive Feedback From Publix Super Markets Employees

    Employee scheduling. The staff is always under staffed. The employees are overworked and underpayed for the work they do. Recognition for daily employee/ customer recognition is hardly done. But a bad report is immediately noted.
  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    Need to go to sales and marketing seminars to get trained not a video training on a computer.
  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    A more experienced manager, that is more hands on with her team and doesnt disappear all time. Had knowledge of everything in the department and proper training to lead, not relying on coworkers under her to show her how to do things

Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility at Publix Super Markets

Our impact on the planet is always on our minds, and we strive to develop new ways to operate in a caring and careful manner. While we’ve made great progress, we know there’s always room for improvement. By constantly seeking new information and innovations, and collaborating with partners, we will continue to be a leader in sustainability.

We are committed to social and environmental responsibility. We focus on business practices that protect and preserve the environment, support our communities, and promote the health of our associates and our customers. We even make an effort to help influence our suppliers to manufacture their products using sustainable practices.
Intolerance of waste is what Mr. George believed in when he founded Publix, and it’s still in our mission statement today. Environmental responsibility has always been important to Publix. The processes we have in place—from our bagging techniques to our product packaging—support reusing, reducing, and recycling waste.
But sustainability doesn’t end with the environment. We want to help make the communities we serve sustainable too. That’s why we established our perishable recovery program to donate unsalable, yet still consumable, food to Feeding America® member food banks.
We continue to support sustainability initiatives, and some are more obvious than others. What exactly have we done? What results have we achieved to date? Take a look around our virtual store to see for yourself.
