Pros

None. No pros. Do not do it.

Cons

Awful, terrible, made me depressed. Bullied every day. Management is terrible and incompetent. Get in trouble for doing exactly what they said to do. Harassed me daily, hourly, spent my lunch breaks crying in my car calling counseling services. Got a bad feeling every time in the store. Constantly told contrasting things. You will be bullied. Got yelled at daily. Got to where I could barely cope. Kohl’s is not good, they will make you feel worthless. They will make you sell the Kohl’s credits in unethical ways. They will ask you to lie on the customer salary to get approved for the kohl’s card. So many bad things I could go on a long time. Felt like torture working there. An employee used the bathroom number 2 in the fitting area and buried it in clothing and wrote on the walls with it. Really just a bad place in general for the bad people to work and harass you in the worst ways. Be careful and avoid.

Pros

Do yourself a favor and don’t apply. The pay is horrible! They want you to protect loss prevention, service customers and do other side jobs like keep the place tip top, replenish, cashier, get credit, sign up for bb, color match, take timely breaks with just 2 associates closing. Such low quality service and poor management, not to mention they pay minimum wage!! But yeah, keep them making the most off your backs and coupon away!!!

Cons

Same as above but exaggerated and with ALL caps
