Pros

Pay is fair for hours worked. Vacation fair for time worked. Decent, diverse, hard working people trying to make ends meet in a difficult work environment.

Cons

Scheduling is awful, no consistency. Very difficult to plan personal time in advance. Guidelines available but often ignored. Customers are equivalent to Kmart shoppers though the stores are more department store oriented. Competency often ignored in place of likeability when determining management placement. Recognition almost nno-existent for pure work performance.

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.
