Pros

Nice atmosphere. Nice management & co workers. Very good return policy. "Okay" employee discount. I don't have to cover my tattoo. Great sales. PT employees get benefits.

Cons

Kohl's charge this, kohl's charge that! Kohl's is ALL about making a dollar..They dont give you hours unless you get a lot of "C's" (kohl's charge card apps) They make you work LONG hours & give you breaks when they want you to have them, IF you ever get them. I had my lunch break 40 mins before i was due to get off & when i got back i was told i wasn't supposed to take it without being "relieved".. after working a LONG shift, starving, with an unauthorized break, they STILL asked me to stay late. Did i mention the pay was lousy? Minimum wage. Honestly i don't think they pay me enough for my aggravation & agony. They expect WAY too much work for WAY too little money.

Pros

Pay is very good once you start getting raises. Weekly pay

Cons

Genuinely everything else, the pay is that high because they have to pay you over 25 just to put up with the awful environment. terrible structure, terrible management, no accountability, cliquey mean girl environment. managers are allowed to sit around and do essentially nothing while supervisors carry 100% of the load and there is no checks and balances to ensure management does the right thing. Corporate and HR genuinely don't care if certain people sit on their butt While others keep the business running. Credit card pushing is absolutely Off the Wall insane. Getting enough credit cards is all the company cares about and managers do not help. Managers are allowed to have no history with getting any credit cards at all and corporate doesn't bat an eye. If you try to speak out about anything that's going on you'll just get fired. Retaliation is allowed and encouraged.
