Pros

around 24 days of PTO and alternating weekends off. Benefits good

Cons

Terrible hours. 9 hour shifts and maybe more with lack of support and constant call outs from part timers. Get ready to close the store then be back the next morning. And don't forget they want you to do mid shifts now so go ahead and block off a couple days a week as well. No work life balance so if you really love kohls and working in retail and want this go be your life, this is the job for you. The store is also losing sales rapidly so I wouldn't be surprised to see them go under soon

Pros

Pay is very good once you start getting raises. Weekly pay

Cons

Genuinely everything else, the pay is that high because they have to pay you over 25 just to put up with the awful environment. terrible structure, terrible management, no accountability, cliquey mean girl environment. managers are allowed to sit around and do essentially nothing while supervisors carry 100% of the load and there is no checks and balances to ensure management does the right thing. Corporate and HR genuinely don't care if certain people sit on their butt While others keep the business running. Credit card pushing is absolutely Off the Wall insane. Getting enough credit cards is all the company cares about and managers do not help. Managers are allowed to have no history with getting any credit cards at all and corporate doesn't bat an eye. If you try to speak out about anything that's going on you'll just get fired. Retaliation is allowed and encouraged.
