Pros

management easy to get along with, expectations not too high, fun to shop, discounts on top of clearance pricing is awesome.

Cons

upper management would rather hire someone from outside the company to move into management positions than promote from within using the qualified employees they have available. store managers make their decisions without any feedback from assistants being aknowledged.

Pros

Decent benefits. If you don't mind 4-15 hours a week they are willing to work around anything in your personal life. If you do move up into management (they prefer to hire outside the company) then you get 4 weeks paid vacation.

Cons

I did move up quickly but since I did not "fit in" I was never going to be promoted to a higher level of management. They did nothing to help me develop my skills for management but spent more time trying to get me to quit even though the district manager found me to be one of his best employees.

Pros

Constantly interacting with different people

Cons

Constantly being harassed about credits. Soliciting Kohl's cards is part of the job requirement, and I don't need the management to constantly be down my throat about it. I ask, and I promote...If a customer doesn't want it, I'm not going to force them
