Kmart reviews

Work in one department doing the same mundane tasks day in and day out, while upper management promote the incompetent people who have worked there for two weeks to a position of power because they like them as a person. Two years of consistent work and no raise.

Corporate "management" is a complete waste of the company's money. The majority of them are completely incompetent and unrealistic. They do not care about the company's employees, customers or store management. All they care about is numbers other than the bottom line (for example, Reward Cards, Sears Credit Apps, and Smart Plan Extended Warrantys). They have high expectations and ask for a lot, then turn around and slash payroll hours. The pay you are hired at, is what you stay at, no matter how hard you work. The District Management instructs stores not to pay any associate more than the required pay per hour by law (minimum wage). I have never seen a company with lower morale among employees working at store level than Kmart.
