Pros

It's very family-oriented, which is nice. They do tons of things to make families come together: Family sections at Miller Park; daycare on the premises; Christmas winter wonderland outside with ice skating rink, sleigh ride, Santa visits and cookie decorating. Pay is decent.

Cons

They run you dry, which makes sense now why so many people move around in different positions. Started as a freelancer and it sucked! Treat the freelancers like slaves, promising jobs and promotions and not delivering! And, as usual for larger companies, tons of internal politics. Some members of upper management stepping on the little people to get where they want without suffering consequences for their crassness.

Pros

Kohl's values their associates. This is demonstrated in ample two way communication as well as the work life balance being achievable,

Cons

Although this has been improving, there is a lag in technology that could improve systems and inventory flow and control.
