Pros
Good pay and Benefits for Managers Good employee discount Strong retailer Training offered Learn many new ways to handle customers and employee situations
Cons
It is retail which means you have NO work life balance. When you work for Kohls they OWN you, especially as a manager. If you enjoy holidays now, you won't while working at Kohls. The hours the store is very bad for employees. If you have a personal emergency there is no real way to get time off without messing up all your co-managers schedules. This makes life very difficult. Communication on all levels is very poor. As a manager it was very difficult to manage associates because often times you did not have all the answers. It was fly by the seat of your pants type environment. Training is offered but not training in what is relevent to your every day job. The workload was very difficult to manage because there was never enough payroll to finish a project correctly. Upper management never wanted to hear the truth about what was going on in the store. They only wanted to hear the "right" answer.
