Pros

Great flexibility with schedule, friendly coworkers, opportunity to grow if you are looking into management. They also will let you transfer around to other Kohl's which is great if you will be moving.

Cons

Pay is low at minimum wage to start and raises are not frequent. Hours vary drastically, one day you may work at 6am the next you may close at 11:30, which is common with retail.

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.
