Pros

around 24 days of PTO and alternating weekends off. Benefits good

Cons

Terrible hours. 9 hour shifts and maybe more with lack of support and constant call outs from part timers. Get ready to close the store then be back the next morning. And don't forget they want you to do mid shifts now so go ahead and block off a couple days a week as well. No work life balance so if you really love kohls and working in retail and want this go be your life, this is the job for you. The store is also losing sales rapidly so I wouldn't be surprised to see them go under soon

Pros

Good full-time benefits, flexible scheduling. But the cons are starting to outweigh the good.

Cons

A new store manager took over the Massapequa Park location (Long Island, NY) and the workplace culture has become highly challenging since. Her management style is overly critical, and she makes harsh, rapid judgments without taking the time to know her associates or understand their roles. Furthermore, she does not lead by example, and she sets unrealistic expectations without providing regular check-ins or continuous coaching. This has left the staff feeling unsupported and neglected. There is also a strong perception that loyal employees hours are being unfairly cut or even terminated to reduce store costs rather than supporting the well-being and retention of the staff.
