Pros
The only pro to this job is that it’s an easy field to get in and you work from home. That’s it. The benefits for full time are good but they’ve taken it off the table for part time stylists to apply to it for the future.
Cons
Toxic positivity. Any issues or complaints are silenced and told to not cause waves instead of working on solutions. Flexibility has been removed from the position making it impossible to use as a secondary job but they also don’t guarantee enough hours to make it a primary job unless you got a full time role (which they’ve taken off the table for future stylists for the time being again.) The “algorithms” are extremely flawed and all tech breaks and has issues almost daily making it nearly impossible to get a solid schedule like they’re requiring. It’s impossible to plan ahead. They want you to fill your schedule in advance but don’t release the actual hours until Friday for the week that begins the immediate Sunday following, only giving two days of notice on whether you’re even going to have decent hours or not. Inventory is the same year over year in new colors. They don’t take actual trends into account and just stick to “best sellers” that are best sellers because we bought too many and have to send them to everyone. There’s no upward mobility. They’ve hired more and more from outside sources so they don’t sympathize with “lowly” stylists. We’re watching upper management rotate more than tires.
