Pros

Kohl's does a good job of making sure their employees are engaged. They request feedback on the work environment through surveys of their employees at least twice per year. I enjoy working in the marketing department as we have a lot of freedom to try new approaches and ideas. Everything you need is on-site. Two gourmet cafes, a bank, dry-cleaning, wellness center which includes a gym, doctors office, and pharmacy, concierge services, and on-site day care.

Cons

In certain areas, employees may not be recognized for their hard work. I've noticed that your experience at Kohl's is really dependent upon if you have a good manager. We see frequent re-organizing of the team structures. Communcation is a challenge due to the size of the company. Certain teams work harder than others. Some areas are very high pressure.

Pros

managers can be friendly at times

Cons

Little to no training been working here for almost a year now there’s still something I don’t know every day. What was most difficult for me was being at registers as I was trained in two days by shadowing someone. There are so many situations and problems that will come up every day and you will learn something new! They never taught me about Kohl’s cash, how to read receipts, reprint or edit receipts. They schedule so little so when you do learn something there’s no chance of rehearsal because you come in three weeks later working at a different department.
