Pros

The salary for Kmart management seems to be higher than the competitors but you certainly have to work harder than the average person in such a position to keep it.

Cons

Company struggles with inventory levels making the store level experience a nightmare to work in. We often find ourselves handling freight several times before there is room on the sales floor to display it. Upper management decisions are being made without even having an understanding of actual store operations, therefore, giving unrealistic tasks and timelines to the stores and then wondering why stores can't execute. Payroll given to the stores does not match the tasks required of the stores.

Everything was a pro. That place was awesome to work for!

The only con is that is no longer a store in our community. Sadly, it went out of business.
