Pros

Pay is much better than other similar companies - ( varies some by location due to bonus structure ) Decent benefits A fair number of fun people.

Cons

As is the case with almost all retail you sacrifice sleep,health,family and peace of mind for a solid paycheck. I've done this for over 18 years with 3 companies and this one by far is the worst for driving their employees to the point of exaustion in the name of a buck.Hours keep getting reduced while conditions are expected to stay the same.Heaven help you if you fail one of a half dozen or so audits or fail to complete a checklist ( thats a documentable offense ) Stores in my area routinely sell in excess of 700k per week but run 5 hours over budgeted labor and and expect a "discussion point" What a crock.

Pros

Better than average pay and bonus checks. Management ususally grants days requested off by part time associates.Management does not pay close attention to departments with their own managers.

Cons

Harris teeter works part time associates to death to save money. They say they cap part time hours at 28/ week, however multiple times now I have worked 35 hours/ week at PART TIME PAY. Bonus checks are just a little extra cash seeing as they're taxed 40%. Most departments are understaffed. Raises are non-existent. One associate is chosen to receive a gift card once every 3 months. Many associates are unhappy. Management expects 30 hours of work to be complete in a 5 hour shifts and reprecussions occur when you don't finish. Worst working experience.
