Q&A With Kohl's Employees

This is a retail store. Work from home does not apply to in store employees, although it may be different at the corporate or regional levels

Does not exist

I haven’t been part of it, but we had an intern a year or so ago and she is now back and a full time supervisor.

I have had a mit..she was wonderful

HR and the supervisors are very on top of things. I had an issue and my supervisor and HR went out of their way to help me and make sure I didn’t lose my position and that my health and welfare were not at risk.

There is a bullying situation by one long term employee against several other employees..they say they will talk to her and then she is sickening sweet to everyone for a couple days and then she is right back to being a bully..as a victim myself of her meanness I feel that management just is not doing enough to stop this

They update their gadgets and programs as often as they can and look for them ays to help make the job easier and more efficient. They also welcome ideas from everyone.

The technology is awful..changing signs so yesterday..half the bluebirds don't work

Pace scores are tracked, errors are monitored, extra help or counseling is given for those who need it and growth is rewarded...

As a part time employee, I think management shows you are succeeding when they teach you a new department or section; ask you to be an omni lead.

very casual

Mutual

very easy and relaxed

Different

I had a group interview with about ten people, since I was interviewing for seasonal. We met in the stockroom and the interviewer asked each of us the same question and we answered.

Easy and exciting

Listen

They do offer opportunities to move up in the company, but pay is terrible unless you're an executive. They place huge responsibilities for the promotions and the raises are terrible. They base it off "sales" and credit which means if you don't make a certain about of credit goals, your yearly raise is even smaller. I'm talking five, ten cent raises.

That's totally a function of each locations employess

The company culture and its treatment of its customer base.

within the company there are many options for mobility both in position and location. First choice for open positions are given to current employees within the district and region

That will depend on your employment level and whether the move is voluntary or company mandated.

In the stores the outings will vary at each. Usually a holiday party around Christmas. Other outings are at the discretion of the store or arranged by employees on their own. Kohls has an "associates in action" program where associates take part in charitable events that raise money for approved organizations. This can very much be an outing like experience

casual

interaction with coworkers

The hours. We are open on Friday and Saturday until 11pm. We are there until midnight.

Kohl's has a dedication to helping the community through Kohl's cares.

If you work hard you won't be passed by. They notice when your heart isn't in it.

None

Talking to people and be ready to work

Be a good brown nosed and become a supervisor favorite. Because hard work isn’t always appreciated if you don’t butter up the supervisors.

They send you an email firing you and make sure you can no longer log into various functions to check your employment status, pay records, attendance.

They truly do care for their employees. Yes they have quality and work standards, but they follow the work hard, play hard mentality....how many businesses do you know that treat their employees to lunch, slushees, cupcakes, cook offs, and contests randomly all year long and celebrate all holidays with small tokens of appreciation for each employee?

None
