Pros

Management is committed to making Kohl's a better place to work. They seem generally interested in making opportunities for ambitious employees to better themselves and move their careers forward.

Pros

stable work environment in an unstable economy Good benefits Great if you have a family Opportunity for advancement FT non hourly employees receive 1.25 days off per month for the first 5 years- that equates to 3 weeks off per year starting one month after hire.

Cons

training isn't done well. To long and too broad not enough training that is useful. Management looks to a select few of your peers to make decisions for them If you don't have kids your needs come second Advancement not necessarily based on merit- more based on how well you get along with your supervisor.- Some people who advance are not qualified to do the new positions The expectation is to over communicate to everyone. Feedback comes only at select times of the year/ your work cycle unless you have done something TERRIBLY wrong. So it is difficult to make improvements until you are made aware of areas others think you have room for improvement in.

Pros

It is a great place to work at and the majority of workers there are friendly and easy to get along with. The salary is different according to what job you apply for at kohls. I worked there for only a short amount of time but that is not because I didn't enjoy it. I actually really liked working there. I quit because of personal issues going on in my life. Overall it was a great place to work at.

Cons

Sometimes you can be scheduled your whole weekend to work because the computer makes the schedules. However, it changes from week to week.
