I think that Kohl's is a great place to work, although I believe they should promote more from within. - Anonymous employee Kohl's Employee Review

Pros

Kohl's is a very forward thinking company. I believe Kohl's has what it takes to stay on top. Kohl's changes almost automatically to meet the demands of the market. Kohl's also offers many opportunities to develop employees through training courses offered.

Cons

I am a very capable employee. Opportunities for advancement within the store are few and far between. I know that most companies have interns, but believe current emplioyees should be given those promtions before interns; provided they are well qualified. It greatly impacts my morale as well as others when interns that are not nearly as qualified are given promotions that current well qualified employees are passed up for.

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.
