Pros

Truly can't think of one.

Cons

The CX team here is an absolute travesty. By far one of the worst teams I have ever worked for/with. The lack of empathy/humanity from leadership is appalling considering they demand empathy/humanity from their team when dealing with horrendous customers who get off on harrassing associates over the company's several incompetencies (delivery carriers losing packages, cheaply made products, etc.). Retention specialists are harshly critiqued over CSAT scores and other various metrics whereas any successes or triumphs are swept under the rug/shrugged off and any areas for opportunity or below-average result is treated like you've made such a grave mistake for the company at large. Also, the amount of tickets and messages that are expected to be answered on an hourly basis is far too high as emails, chat messages, and SMS flood the inbox without any proper cadence - creating an unnecessary backlog and ultimately, making burnout a very real consequence of this job. Also, this company will pride itself on being a "start-up" which seems like an exciting environment and culture to be involved in - but no - the company still operates in such an archaic fashion that they can't even afford to offer their employees paid holidays which is a joke and a slap in the face to a hard-working team who don't get paid nearly enough to deal with this level of abuse and exploitation.

Pros

Great communication in a start-up environment. Growth opportunities are truly endless, and you are supported in pursuing a position and career that suits you best within the company. Management is always a message away and never afraid to step in and advocate for you and what you need. Truly not another company that does it the way that Quince does.

Cons

Truly, no real cons to think of at this time.

Pros

decent pay, but not enough for what they expect out of you, the queue for interactions was backed up consistently nearly every single day by 500+ interactions. free clothes from store credit they give you, other than that, nothing special.

Cons

micromanaged constantly, i was fired over my CSAT rating being off mark by 0.02 % due to mental health after a family member passed away. they gave me an attendance point for having to leave work an hour and a half early due to the call my grandmother was dead from cardiac arrest. literally one of the most heartless HR teams I have ever had the displeasure of working with. They are negligent with your bonus checks, take forever to get back to you, and will fire you the first real opportunity they get so they can continue paying the minimum acceptable entry level wage.
