It’s like getting free money! Here is some basic information about the SMART Plan. You can learn more and enroll by going to the SMART Plan website through www.publix.org or you can call the Information Line at 1-888-401k-PLN (1-888-401-5756).
Secondly, what is Publix profit plan?
Profit Plan (ESOP) is the stock that Publix gives to Associates (usually at around 8% of annual salary). How and when you can take from 401(k) is determined by the IRS. I believe ESOP stock can be accessed any time after retirement.
Furthermore, how much stock does Publix give employees?
Just as the word “gift” implies, employees are given shares of Publix common stock at no cost, accumulating, on the average, about 3.5 shares per week, according to one former employee. “It’s roughly eight percent of your annual pay,” the employee said.
Does Publix give Christmas bonus?
No. Christmas bonus is not the inventory bonus. … There is a bonus in January to pay out the remaining weeks from November to December and that is it.
Is Publix really a good place to work?
Publix is probably the best place to work for retail wise. The benefits and pay are good and the managers are (usually) very nice. The Publix culture is very family like and everyone gets along with everyone. Probably the hardest part about leaving was leaving my coworkers that I had bonded with.
