Experience was good my first 4 yrs. After that, crappy management from store level up to corporate has gone to hell. Has one star only because this site wouldn't let me leave it blank. - Freight Associate Kohl's Employee Review

Pros

Only pro is very short commute from home. Saves on gas

Cons

Management is terrible. No communication, extreme favoritism, although they tout flexible scheduling... doesn't happen. Vacation time taken away from pt workers and no benefits anymore. When life throws you a curve ball, they will not work with your scheduling. You're given an ultimatum. Either work what they want or be fired. Have to be available 24/7, or again, you're given an ultimatum. Yet they expect you to live on 8 hrs or less a week. #365 hulen has lost so many wonderful people due to the current screwed up management. Store is going to hell in a hand basket. People not trained, veteran associates being cut instead of utilized. I could go on and on. Not worth the time people. Currently seeking other employment myself.
