Pros

Large teams provide a support system. Benefits aren't the best I've seen, but they're pretty close (401K matching, vacation buyback, etc.) There are some very nice people who work there, and there are some people who do an exemplary job.

Cons

The environment is very intense, at times dog eat dog. Cross departmental communication is challenging and internal politics often get in the way of productivity. Very solid glass ceiling. Performance reviews aren't really tied to performance, but become more a cost of living increase.

Pros

Easy work with positive work place environment for entry level employees.

Cons

People would try to steal stuff and preventing that was potentially dangerous and a pain at times. (not really through fault of the employer or Kohl's)
