Pros

Good benefits, good associates, decent discounts, training of sorts, communication manuals with color pictures. That about sums it up for me to use 20 words.

Cons

The company has begun what other companies have done near the end. Reduce payroll, FT positions to not give benefits. Same amount of tasks but with less support and shorter time period. Quality of life is not possible. The great new 3 year agenda to make Kohls the most engaging retailer has not raised it to that pinnacle.
