Kohl's Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"I have worked with Kohl's for 3 years and I believe it's a great place for people looking for room to grow. I started out as a cashier and after almost 2 years I was promoted to Admin and the right hand of my store manager. There's a lot of room to move up very quickly if you are willing to put in the work and believe and uphold the company's values. There's a lot of entry level management opportunity available as well."

"Worked at kohls since 2017"

"worked since Jan 2018. Great people to work with. Low company benefits. No clarity in career path"

"I wouldn’t recommend working at this company for many reasons."

"I have worked with startup companies as well as big company like YouTube. But working in a retail gave me experience of retail industry which is growing rapidly as well as face paced environment."

"I worked here nearly a decade and became burned out from the chaos so I turned in a two-week notice, as that is the proper thing to do. Apparently, people quitting reflects poorly on management so they fired me (or tried to since I already had quit) and I suspect my resignation letter will never see the light of day."

"Kohls will not give hours. You cannot eat and pay bills. Sometimes you are not even put on the schedule."

"I absolutely LOVE to shop at Kohls! Who doesn't??? Employee discount, high quality merchandise, fabulous deals, tons of coupons, and of course KOHLS CASH (getting paid back to shop)!!! Unfortunately working in my all time favorite store didn't go as I had hoped. So, I wouldn't recommend working here (unless you're in a higher up position with the ability and willingness to be a leader in a TEAM setting throughout the WHOLE totem poll). I usually, actually I never leave remarks that aren't 5 star ratings...but in this case I feel maybe my OPINION based off MY OWN experience should be shared. Today in particular, I met some super amazing hard working co-workers who in every aspect inspired me...a few great men who I'd be honored to work with again. Sadly a few great men or women don't make up "a team". It's EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE working in an environment that's not FULLY being respected or taken seriously by the whole team or corrected properly with compassion by management. I believe Kohls employment could be as fabulous as the store/brand itself under the correct settings. Some pros were great flexibility with scheduling, easy access to employee schedules and info, wonderful customers, employee discount, openings to work, and weekly pay. Cons (in my particular case, of course other locations could be different) management let inappropriate behavior continue, lacked leadership qualities and failed to set examples, VERY LITTLE training, and ineffectiveness to communicate strategically (to many chiefs, not enough Indians). "A group with a positive dynamic is easy to spot. Team members trust one another, they work towards a collective decision, and they hold one another accountable for making things happen.""

"I have worked at Kohl's for a few years. The styling work can be tedious, and most of the time there is little room for creativity. The merchants drive the creative look."

"I was hired as a jewelry associate as holiday help in 2014. I worked very hard, showed up when I was scheduled and did my job. I was 1 of 10 kept after the holidays. Kohl's is a very good place to work if you simply need a little extra income but have a full time job elsewhere. I work on the average of 15 hours per week now after the holidays which is great for me. The Kohl's I work at has training videos but you don't get to use them because they by law have to pay you while you are training and they only have barely enough people to cover shifts on the floor so no extra time to train. I have talked to people that have been there for two years or more that do not know how to do anything but ring up a customer. you will be shown how to use a register and be shown things that you have to know as you go along but it is sketchy at best. This is a corporate problem but an understandable one as well. All in all, Kohl's is a great place to work for extra income but you have to be quick on picking things up because the training time just isn't there. I love working there and am trying to learn as I go."
