Pros

If you put in the hard work, you will shine above the other mediocre ASMs and advance into upper management. Great benefits for salaried employees. Competitive pay and vacation time. I enjoy not having a desk job and working one-on-one with associates and sups. I have been very lucky to have an amazing store manager that respects time off and allows two weekends off a month and I never have to close more than twice a week.

Cons

If there is a visit in the works then you will definitely put in 12-16 hours a day Holiday hours are insane and will leave you drained for about 2 months. They give an extra week of vacation after holidays to compensate for it. There are days where projects will consume your life and you won't have the payroll to have associates assist

Pros

managers can be friendly at times

Cons

Little to no training been working here for almost a year now there’s still something I don’t know every day. What was most difficult for me was being at registers as I was trained in two days by shadowing someone. There are so many situations and problems that will come up every day and you will learn something new! They never taught me about Kohl’s cash, how to read receipts, reprint or edit receipts. They schedule so little so when you do learn something there’s no chance of rehearsal because you come in three weeks later working at a different department.
