Pros

Compensation for management is better than any other job that is similar. Some good people there. Be open minded, some have gone through ups and downs with this company.

Cons

In the past it seems as though some managers got the job by luck and who they knew. Abilities and leadership just wasn't there.

Pros

Kmart is a very laid back place to work, which makes it a relatively stress free environment. The tasks are easy to accomplish, and the atmosphere is welcoming. They are willing to work around personal schedules.

Cons

The pay is (very) low, especially in the current market. Raises are rarely given without a change in position, and the work can become somewhat monotonous. The schedules are somewhat sporadic, as well.
