Pros

If you are looking to meet new people from various backgrounds, then it would be beneficial to work @ Kohl's.

Cons

Important information (ie: sales, promotions, etc) are not shared openly amongst employees and management. Thus, confusion arises when a customer approaches staff about a particular sale that is running. Opening Kohl's credit card accounts seems to be a main priority for management. Management really pushes this on employees. Breaks must be taken on Kohl's property; employees are not allowed to leave the grounds on their breaks.

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.
