Pros

Kohl's is always willing to award you for doing a great job whether it be by just helping out a fellow associate, a customer with a difficult question, or by getting better in a certain area such as credit or email sign ups. My favorite thing about Kohl's has been the managers I work for a Kohl's that is in the top 10 of the company. With that rank comes great management who are not only focused on their customers and goals, but also on helping their employees better themselves and maintain a healthy lifestyle. I am a college student who came home looking for a summer job. Kohl's hired me, even though I was potentially leaving in the fall. As I began to hone my skills at getting credit card applications, they started to let me know that I was a valued employee that they wanted to keep. I found out that Kohl's has a program for college students where you can work as little as once every 90 days, but still be employed and get hours during breaks. I have never heard of a company who is so flexible and caring. Kohl's has really allowed me to focus on school while still knowing I have a job to go home to.

Cons

The only con that I have seen so far is that at times we are understaffed. These makes those busy times very, very difficult. I understand that Kohl's can not predict the exact busy days, but I wish they would keep some people on call just in case they are needed so that the rest of us aren't struggling through the day.

Pros

Pay is very good once you start getting raises. Weekly pay

Cons

Genuinely everything else, the pay is that high because they have to pay you over 25 just to put up with the awful environment. terrible structure, terrible management, no accountability, cliquey mean girl environment. managers are allowed to sit around and do essentially nothing while supervisors carry 100% of the load and there is no checks and balances to ensure management does the right thing. Corporate and HR genuinely don't care if certain people sit on their butt While others keep the business running. Credit card pushing is absolutely Off the Wall insane. Getting enough credit cards is all the company cares about and managers do not help. Managers are allowed to have no history with getting any credit cards at all and corporate doesn't bat an eye. If you try to speak out about anything that's going on you'll just get fired. Retaliation is allowed and encouraged.
