Pros

Truly is work from home so no commute, can make your own schedule

Cons

No support to stylists. Consistently having inventory shortages but not trying to remediate it and still putting pressure on stylists to perform. Everyone (management, leads) fake acknowledges the problem but ignore stylists’ pleads for help. No raises or advancement opportunities. Expected to perform at high level but no commission even if your stats are very good (clients bought a lot, consistent positive feedback, styled the require 4.25 clients per hour consistently). Same clothes every season, very rarely new cuts pop up. Social media marketing not aligned with actual inventory, leading to certain expectations from clients. When their boxes don’t look like what’s advertised, stylists are to blame and are not allowed to tell clients the real reason that we truly don’t offer what’s marketed (basically it’s false advertising).

Pros

- The company started out with good intentions I feel, as we have the ability to set our own schedule and working from home is always a plus.

Cons

- As time goes on, more and more have been taken away from stylists. Our scheduling freedom was removed this year, which was a huge reason most people applied for this job. In other part time jobs, you can usually give shifts away or trade with others, but now you have no flexibility and are expected to work max hours every week. - Stylists have not been given a raise in years and instead are capped after you work here for so long. - Seems like the company is heading in a direction for stylists to be taken over by AI, but we'll see! - You are completely controlled by your metrics, which a lot of times you have no control over because of bad inventory, but will be monitored and put on corrective action + eventually fired if your metrics aren't always where the company wants them to be
