Pros

Great co workers, good support from most in store managers.

Cons

I have been in retail for many years and this is by far the worst place I have ever worked. Corporate support is non existent. Payroll, payroll, payroll. The store is horribly understaffed and a mess. Leave any OCD tendencies you have at home and be prepared to feel like you have failed everyday Customer service is horrible because there are no employees on the floor. No matter what you are scheduled to do you will end up at POS or customer service. Because customer service is so bad customers are often angry ad rude, and they have good reason to be. Advertised sale items are commonly not available in the store and the on line price for the same item is commonly higher than the in store price. Kohl's does not do in store price matching for their on line prices, absurd. It makes customers very angry. And last but certainly not least the pay is an insult. It is far lower to start than almost any other major retailer. No matter how good an employee you are or how bad your yearly raise will only be 2% or lower.

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.
