Pros

Great coworkers Friendly team members Great Dept leadership Great discounts

Cons

Managers don't fire underperformers because there's NO ONE ELSE to do the work Kohl's is just another symptom of the corporate greed/lack of a LIVING minimum wage--"faux" woke but they're living off broke employees No union, sorely needed A/C is awful during the summer, you will sweat Arrogant corporation-- yes, REQUIRE your teams to CHANGE their wardrobe and wear an all-black shirt uniform WITHOUT offering it free of charge IN A PANDEMIC annnnnnnnd then cover it up with crappily timed "friends and family" discount Disgusting, not even trying to hide their greed Passive-aggressive How many millions did you know who get while new coworkers and seasoned coworkers with solid work ethics get paid the same rate And watch out for the influx of high school kids getting hired, nice kids but not always the most reliable workers

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.
