Pros

The paychecks clear every time. Great place for the unemployed and those looking to sunset their careers to apply. (I'd keep looking for something better, though) Insurance is good, too.

Cons

Management and Leadership is incompetent. In 2009 a survey of employees was done which pointed out two issues. A Vice President was assigned to formulate a plan to fix those issues. She might as well have just vomited on herself. A year later, another survey was done. Guess what? SAME TWO MAIN ISSUES. So, in their infinite wisdom, they assigned the resolution to the SAME VP. Although they did resolve it in 2012 by not surveying everyone. Another example of incompetent leadership? The company is scrambling to put people all over town since they woke up one morning and realized they were out of space. How is it that leadership couldn't foresee that happening? Who is running the joint? If they can't figure out the growth of the company and how much space they need, they must be making money by mistake, too. Equally baffling is that investors haven't questioned that as well....

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.
