Harris Teeter reviews

Short of help at times

What I did not like at all, and what seemed to be somewhat "deceptive" is that they post a position for a department (bakery/ deli/ produce) "manager trainee" and you take all of the prerequisite "management training" (even when highly experienced) and they lead you to believe that you are being groomed for a store of your own in the very near future. IN REALITY- after your training you are told that you, like all other management trainees must "apply for the job" with corporate, and you are at the "back of the line" of all of the other "Manager Trainees" that have come before you, and are now in "Assistant Manager" slots - which is where you end up for a very very long time, as those slots are difficult to fill- they have the most responsibility and the worst schedule (in essence, you are the worker bees for all of the duties & hours that the department manager can't or doesn't want to do. The pay isn't enough for what is required. They post openings for all positions, all of the time, whether the actual need is there or not. (Management Program is deceptive- if you wanted an "Assistant Manager" position, you would have applied for it!
