Pros

they have a great benefits package , the employees are friendly, and the stores themselves are nice

Cons

some times the shift changes are simultaneous, so if there is a project going on, a whole new shift comes in and they have no idea what to do, even the bosses switch out, so they are totally lost.

Pros

The management was always friendly and called each associate by name. The company provided a cake each month in honor of the birthday's for that month, so that was very nice. The associate discount was also nice.

Cons

The pay wasn't very good. It was basically minimum wage with retail experience. There was always a push from management to get customers to sign up for Kohl's charge cards, but that's every department store. I was never scheduled for enough hours combined with the low pay.

Pros

KOHL'S is one of the few retailers that are doing well considering the current economy. Lower prices on name brand merchandise and much more. Electronic Signing which diplaces prices of merchandise on each merchaandise fixture is one of many examples of how KOHL'S is staying ahead of the competition in regards to the future.

Cons

Most associates are part time with the exception of hourly department supervisors. Certain departments like toys, fashion accessories, and housewares are often neglected due to priority of departments.
