"They never move inside people up. They hire outside people, or newly graduated Penn State students."

"Pros: co-workers are awesome, flexibility, discounts.Cons: pay/non-consistent hours.After working on the registers for a while I have to say I do feel like a robot by the end of the day. Your salary is too low for everything you have to say to a customer.It's a fun environment, everyone gets along with everyone, discounts are great, but unfortunately I watch people cheat the system every day! I forgot my 30% coupon at home. I hear it all the time!"

Kohl's Employee

"I worked for Kohls 3 years. The supervisors/managers tend to put a lot of pressure on the employees to meet unreal expectations and when they did, they were not compensated for their hard work. The best part of the job was seeing the smile of a satisfied customer, and coworker friendship."

"Management is more concerned with improving their position within the company rather than the quality of the work environment. There were constant department reorganizations. I directly reported to 9 people in 5 years."

"One of the worst companies to work for. Worked with them for seven years, five different managers. The assistant manager is very rude. Manager doesn't say hello to staff, 7 years, 4 hours per week, it only started since this new crew of 4 took over."

"The Kohls in Florence SC is awful. Mostly because of management. They could care less about their employees, bad communication and just overall not a good place to work if you want any respect. The store manager that's there now treats her employees like they are dogs, telling them to do something NOW and just speaking to them with no respect. I have heard her say that the difference between her and her employees is that the employees have to work, she on the other hand doesn't."

"So, to start out, the training is next to nothing, you get tossed on the floor not knowing anything and looking stupid because you constantly have to tell customers you don't know how to answer their questions. Half the managers don't seem to care and I've only seen the store manager maybe 4 times, he only comes out to crack the whip if we have a visit coming. We are severely understaffed and I ran around doing the work of 2-3 people with no support for horrible pay. Too much clearance!"

"Overall, not a bad place to work. They need to get rid of so much red tape... it really prevents anyone from moving quickly."

"I only worked for Kohl's for a couple of months, but do not believe I was given enough training to do the job to the customer's satisfaction. I reported a problem I was having with a phone used by customers and employees and was told they would check into it. The problem was still not corrected by the time I left."

"The interview process and actually working at Kohl's corporate are very different. like a recruiter from the army and then actually working in the army. The actual culture is very 'mean girls' related. There is no support for anything that would involve conduct. And if you are below management position, you have no voice.There is no respect or consideration for how you feel. Demeaning feedback is supposed to make you feel empowered and fulfilled! Good company but everyone I know has left because of how they were treated."
