Pros

Discounts Nice fellow workers (not managers) Pretty good benefits

Cons

Chaotic, one hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing. Extremely poor communication between managers and employees--except when they are demanding that you get customers to open credit card applications. Very sparse coverage on the floor. Lots of cleanup (recovery) with very little time to get it done. Lots of merchandise ends up needlessly on the overcrowded clearance racks because they were too cheap to hire enough employees to get the merchandise back on the floor in a reasonable amount of time. What a waste. The worst thing, though, is getting so few hours and sometimes not even knowing why. Just not a nice place to work. I would not recommend it.

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.
