Pros

Some of the benefits such as having an on-site day care and clinic were great. Being such a large organization, however, the everyday practices were quite unsophisticated.

Cons

The biggest challenges involved working with the higher levels of HR within the organization. Their level of sophistication and professionalism is very poor. There is no trust among employees that HR will ever be a partner. If this organization truly wants to compete in the future, it must change its HR practices.

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.
