Pros

The customers, the discounts, and the clothes. What else could you ask for? This store has a great selection for customers to choose from such as Daisy Fuentes and excellent home decor options. The associates are always friendly and helpful and the prices are great. There is no better reason to work for the company. The hours are based on performance selling credit cards, so the more you sell the more hours you get. Did I mention the discounts? The clothes are so great and with those discounts you can buy so many clothes. I really enjoyed my time and would work there again.

Cons

The long hours standing infront of the register, the pay. The minimum pay could be base with commission. The amount of customers that are recieved is large and the commission would be amazing. On top of that, selling the credit cards should give even more commission benefits to the employees. The breaks could be more frequent. Standing for four hours straight on those hard floors is not pleasant, so being able to switch from register to floor time would be a great benefit. Sometimes management was no as helpful as I would have liked, for example, a customer is complaining and I call, it shouldn't take 10 minutes to answer. Other than that it is great!

Pros

managers can be friendly at times

Cons

Little to no training been working here for almost a year now there’s still something I don’t know every day. What was most difficult for me was being at registers as I was trained in two days by shadowing someone. There are so many situations and problems that will come up every day and you will learn something new! They never taught me about Kohl’s cash, how to read receipts, reprint or edit receipts. They schedule so little so when you do learn something there’s no chance of rehearsal because you come in three weeks later working at a different department.
