Pros

Great Discounts! Management does an exceptional job of recognizing employees who go above and beyond. Fun atmosphere. The store manager is constantly putting together fun contests and games to rally the employees especially during the holidays when everyone needs a boost of energy and fun. I like the fact that employees who work hard day to day are recognized. When I worked for Kohls in Murfreesboro my manager Sherry Chesak made working retail fun and enjoyable. She never acted above part time or full time employees and was always helping with everything from unloading trucks and putting out freight to cleaning up dirty bathrooms. Great experience working for a great person and great company.

Cons

The pay is not the greatest and working during the holidays.

Pros

Good full-time benefits, flexible scheduling. But the cons are starting to outweigh the good.

Cons

A new store manager took over the Massapequa Park location (Long Island, NY) and the workplace culture has become highly challenging since. Her management style is overly critical, and she makes harsh, rapid judgments without taking the time to know her associates or understand their roles. Furthermore, she does not lead by example, and she sets unrealistic expectations without providing regular check-ins or continuous coaching. This has left the staff feeling unsupported and neglected. There is also a strong perception that loyal employees hours are being unfairly cut or even terminated to reduce store costs rather than supporting the well-being and retention of the staff.
