Pros

The only reason that is worth working there is that you can always get the vacation you need because they have no problem with not scheduling you.

Cons

Where can I start.. You are pretty much guaranteed to be part time with full time hours and as long as they need you, you could even work 6 days a week if you wanted sometimes, however scheduling is never steady and the next week if nothing is going on they wont schedule anyone except those guaranteed full time. *It is too hit or miss if you have anything much more than a cell phone bill.* Overnight unload is extremely hard faced paced work and the truck unload times are always very unrealistic for the size of the team. We would have 7-9 ppl and expected to unload a 53 foot trailer in little over two hours. Also if you can't get used to heavy lifting you never will. Management locks you in the building at night so you smokers are out of luck, but they don't tell you that in the interview.

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.
