Pros
Harris Teeter is a great store. I can find things there that I can't find anywhere else. The weekly speicials are great and the sales in the meat dept is outstanding! the produce dept is amazing!
Cons
Unless one is a member of management they are not allowed to work more than 28 hrs/week. At $8.25/hr that doesn't add up to be a lot of take home pay. The position of cashier requires one to not only collect money for groceries, but it also requires us to unload the carts as well as bagging groceries,and retrieving carts from the parking lot. I don't object to any of those things, but I feel that better wages would give me a greater incentive. Cashiers should be making a minimum of $10.00/h because of the responsibility of handling money and ensuring accuracy and keeping the integrity of the cash drawer secure. Management is forever harping on giving great customer service, but they are only paying lip service to that notion. When I have to stop scanning groceries to start bagging on large orders becuase I don't have a bagger or when I go to another register to bag for another cashier and stop in the middle of it to return to my register for customer checkout, it leaves the customer for whom I was bagging to wonder "Is it something I said?"During training we are told that Harris Teeter customers are not to bag their own groceries. I have said it before and will again, I'm not going to stop them from doing it when I have a line at my register.
