Pros

Surrounded by beautiful fashion, got to meet designers and influential people in the industry.

Cons

Literally the worst job I’ve ever had. Very underpaid for the amount of work I was doing. Took a toll on my mental and physical health. Ending up in the hospital with severe kidney infection for not being able to use the restroom when needed. Faced verbal abuse from managers. No support from HR, and made to feel as you are less than if you don’t have money or primarily from a certain kind of upbringing that I will not mention here but very obvious from the favouritism the personal shoppers gave. There are sooo many other companies out there who value work-life balance and treat you better. I wish I would have told myself that sooner and looked for another job asap. If you want to be in fashion this is not the place. Industry has a reputation for toxicity and this place is the perfect example.

Pros

Good name for the resume, but that's it.

Cons

-No leadership or managerial oversight -No process or structure -No work life balance. Prepare to work long hours and weekends. The quiet expectation is to live and breathe the job. -Highly toxic and abusive behavior by senior team. Be prepared to take blame for everything. -Team is so lean that everyone is doing the work of 5 people and miserable -Not collaborative at all. "Every man for himself" kind of attitude. -Be prepared to be thrown into the deep end of projects with no context and short lead time -Exceptionally high turnover. No one stays longer than a couple of months. 100/10 would not recommend to any sane person.
