      Great Minimum Wage Job for a Student

      Pos associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent benefits package if you stay on long enough. "Yes We Can" initiative gives surprising amount of independent judgement to POS associates when dealing with customers. Bonuses (albeit small) provided for credit card applications. Management was pleasant and reasonable.

      Cons

      Aggressive credit card application quotas. Customers will take take advantage of POS Associates ability to determine discounts. Certain times of the retail year (back-to-school, Christmas) can be unbearable!

      Retail is bad. Kohls is worse.

      Sales floor associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people who work alongside you, ie not your "superiors" are usually pretty fun people. The discount is nice, as well as the random Associate Shop weekends.

      Cons

      Kohls says they offer competitive pay. What a joke. You could go to any given retail store and get a job that pays more and treats you, as an employee, much better. Even when you get a raise, it's no more than a few cents - and that's when your review goes well. Kohls is almost always understaffed and many times the closers end up staying far later than an hour past closing - sometimes it's two in the morning before they get out. This on its own is nearly unbearable, but the management is terribly unappreciative as well. Why would you want to go to work and bust your butt all day when you never feel appreciated and never receive praise for the things you do well?
