Pros of working at Harris Teeter

Worked at Harris Teeter for 15 years, across retail jobs and the corporate level. Great family atmosphere, but the leadership style is very blue-collar and outdated. Overall they promote from within which is great for internal associates but also very much limits the type of brainpower/intellect making business decisions

Cons of working at Harris Teeter

Senior leadership... these executives are almost all former store managers who were successful operators, but that doesn't always translate to corporate leadership

Harris Teeter benefits

Annual bonuses are a great feeling, and they are always paid out
