Pros

If you put in the hard work, you will shine above the other mediocre ASMs and advance into upper management. Great benefits for salaried employees. Competitive pay and vacation time. I enjoy not having a desk job and working one-on-one with associates and sups. I have been very lucky to have an amazing store manager that respects time off and allows two weekends off a month and I never have to close more than twice a week.

Cons

If there is a visit in the works then you will definitely put in 12-16 hours a day Holiday hours are insane and will leave you drained for about 2 months. They give an extra week of vacation after holidays to compensate for it. There are days where projects will consume your life and you won't have the payroll to have associates assist

Pros

had to offer credit to people all the time. Majority of the people already had a kohl's charge or didn't want one.

Pros

It's a pleasant atmosphere with helpfull feedback from coworkers as well as management. I am given every opportunity for suggestions and the freedom to make decisions that will help impact the overall customer in -store experience and feel great that I made a difference after a given shift.

Cons

Like any retail job, scheduling will vary! Sometimes [depending on the season] I have 27 hours, if not more, while other times, barely 7.. even when I did not request off during a certain time frame. Also: if I want to be willing to work Full -Time, I would have to have wide open availability. (Be available to work any shift assigned)-This includes "overnights".
