Pros

the associates for the most part were friendly and easy to get along with. for me the store was close to home.

Cons

not being trained for position hired for, and then being repremanded for doing things incorrectly because of that fact. regularly being scheduled for other things besides what i was hired for because they were short handed and couldnt keep good help. at the same time over staffing so you were lucky to get two 3 hour shifts a week. list goes on and on.......

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.
