Pros

Great hands-on experience in multiple areas of work from customer service/satisfaction to makeup application to merchandising… You learn a ton about the beauty industry, different high end and luxury brands and their products. Can be very fun, depending on who you’re scheduled with each day.

Cons

You work very, very hard- are expected to do your own job plus the jobs of other positions/people that the company just doesn’t want to hire/continue to fill positions for in order to save money. So they have you do it. Large theft issue, management doesn’t seem to prioritize that. Staff satisfaction also doesn’t appear to be a concern of management. Mgt. has the “if you don’t like it, there’s the door” philosophy. They also pay terribly.

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.
