      Kohls: It's a good stepping stone, but not much as a permanent place to work.

      Pros

      Some of the best reasons include: Super flexible scheduling Nice ppl, mostly of whom are not in management Good positions for a retail store The pay is OK - above min wage Paid time off and holidays.

      Cons

      Whew, some of the management is NOT so nice. Christmas is crazy time. Sometimes it gets a little old and monotonous.

      Kohls does no training and disrespects their associates

      Pros

      Managers come and go rather frequently, so it is hit or miss if you get a good one. Because training for how to be a manager is non existent it has to be something that they have learned somewhere else. The associate discount's are average.

      Cons

      There is no training and there is no consistency from any manager. When you ask they give you the party line about "best practices" but they do not practice that. The only time they talk to you is to ridicule you for making a mistake. Any manager from district or higher doesn't even recognize that you exist. When they do blow in they won't even look at you, let alone say anything. It is not a good place to work. Their business practices cause customer dissatisfaction, and they refuse to see that.
