Pros

Fun job, Get to interact with many people, General atmosphere is very positive and motivating. I'd love to continue working for Kohl's in a management position.

Cons

I've asked for more hours per week, and they keep hiring new part time associates, so it is frustrating when I don't get enough hours.

Pros

Kohl's takes care of its employees. We are well compensated for the unsual hours retail has. There is lots of opportunities to make a career.

Cons

Kohl's is a retailer so there are unsual hours. This may mean having to work on Christmas and other holidays.

Pros

I have worked several years for Kohl's and have definitely had ups and downs. I believe the pro side of this company is that they are very flexible with scheduling you around family and family events. I have had only a couple of times in 18 years where there was an issue and then it ended up being an oversight.

Cons

Communication, Comunication, COMMUNICATION. I have seen many managers come and go in 18 years and this same problem still exists! The left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. Softline managerment does not communicate with Hardlines and vise versa. Then throw the store manager in the mix and you have a train wreck! Management has a hard time listening to long term employees who have tons of experience. We have many employees who have been with the company for 10+ years, but management turns a deaf ear to ideas to help the store run a little smoother.
