Pros

- Good pay for retail - Good benefits - Fun/inclusive work environment

Cons

- Disorganized management at times (one manager saying one thing, another says something completely different) - High expectations and understaffed -> feeling like there is too much work for the number of people there - Unclear expectations (will tell you to do one thing, then you will get yelled at for doing as told/following directions).

Pros

Kohl's had a product development office in NYC for their home private brands. This division has since closed and moved back to Wisconsin. The pay was very generous. Very structured with clearly defined roles and responsibilities. It was a wonderful learning experience especially for such a junior role. Great to interface with the buying team and worked with very talented designers and merchants.

Cons

I did not like the managers I worked for. Mean girls. They were the worst people I ever worked for so I left.

Retail is always difficult, higher ups always forcing us to push the credit card even when people said they would no longer shop there if they here of the card again
