Pros

It's a job. Not much you can say other than that. May nice people to work with though.

Cons

It has changed so much since the Kroger buy out. The culture has changed. Too corporate. They want top notch customer service but only give the means for Wal-Mart type labor budgets. It is bad for the customers and the employees. I used to want to retire from here. Now I run for the door the second my day is done.

Pros

Harris Teeter pays me well for my position. I have the same hours every shift although I do not always work the same days of the week. The hours (6am to 2:30pm) allow me to make plans easier. The benefits are nice along with the semi-annual profit sharing check. Peer employees feel like family.

Cons

I work almost every weekend. I am full time, meaning I cannot set an availability. I must keep my schedule open for any day at any time. Part time employees are allowed to say what times and days they want to work without any struggle from management. That means the majority of people working on the weekends are full time associates. I find this senseless. I am constantly overwhelmed with work and receive no help when I ask for it. There are very few people in fresh foods who know how to decorate cakes and recently, the only other person in the department who knows how to decorate has been placed in other positions such as slicing meat or making sandwiches on the weekend when I need help badly to tackle a stack of orders and an empty case.

Pros

Nice co-workers, flexible hours, not the worst pay, profit sharing check every 6 months.

Cons

Management is a roller coaster, some managers are great and some are horrible. Never get off on time. Forget your breaks then make you feel like you shouldn't take one since it's near the end of your break. On call procedure, this is a grocery store not a hospital. Never have baggers, must bag a whole cart single handedly. Customer service rarely responds when you need help. Customers are snobby and rude.
