Pros

Current store manager is willing to work around life events. Kohl's is a growing company even during the recession and offers quality merchandise at affordable prices. There is an excellance in the customer service each store has the ability to offer.

Cons

Current location is very clicky with management aware of issues involving supervisors and staff that is inappropriate but choices to do nothing. An "old boys" type of network.

Pros

i worked with nice people. You are suppose to get a lunch break for a half hour and two 15 minute break if you work 8 hours. They also dont have payroll for interns to work sunday. Therefore you always get sundays off. They take you to millwaukee. If retail is something you are interested you can do a lot with this internship and make the most out of it.

Cons

Welll first off. I had to be at work at 5 in the morning someday. That means I have to get up at like 3:45. Other days you are expected to stay until 12 at night. Many times my boss pulled all nighters and worked like 30 hours in a row. THAT IS INSANE! People never actually take breaks. People are EXTREMELY high stress. Extremely poor work life balance. Also to be honest as a manager you pretty much are like another associate except instead of staying in only one department you learn everything.
