Pros

Kohl's has great opportunities for those wanting to challenge themselves. They don't push responsibility on you, but they recognize people that take initiative. If you ask for more, management will take the time to foster your personal strengths. It won't happen over night. You sort of have to wait in line for your turn, but if you show you are a hard worker, team player, and willing to learn-this company will take care of you.

Cons

Communication from corporate to the sales floor is not always available. They have many resources, but changes in the system frequently fall through the cracks. Kohl's gives a lot of freedom to their employees at all levels to make decisions about handling issues at hand. The right answer isn't always the same answer. So if you are the type of person that lives and dies by the rules, it will be especially challenging for you at Kohl's.

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.
