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

Good full-time benefits, flexible scheduling. But the cons are starting to outweigh the good.

Cons

A new store manager took over the Massapequa Park location (Long Island, NY) and the workplace culture has become highly challenging since. Her management style is overly critical, and she makes harsh, rapid judgments without taking the time to know her associates or understand their roles. Furthermore, she does not lead by example, and she sets unrealistic expectations without providing regular check-ins or continuous coaching. This has left the staff feeling unsupported and neglected. There is also a strong perception that loyal employees hours are being unfairly cut or even terminated to reduce store costs rather than supporting the well-being and retention of the staff.
