Pros

It was once a flexible work from home, whenever you want job, but post Covid it became a nightmare and they jerked us all around until they finally let go of their ENTIRE California styling team after most of us had been there 5+ years.

Cons

Hostile, passive aggressive management. Openly treat their employees like disposable nothings. Make constant company changes that you are expected to pivot with at a second's notice. Laid us all off in the middle of a pandemic when a lot of us had children to feed. I was there for over five years and I never felt like I was part of a team. My managers quit all the time, I think by the end of my career there I had been on 9 different teams. It's extremely stressful keeping your "metrics" in the green and you are blamed for things that have nothing to do with you like extremely limited inventory - sweaters in July and no shorts, for example. Then you get in trouble because nobody kept anything you sent them. If your metrics ever dip into the red, an emergency meeting is called and you are told you will be fired in three weeks if they don't go back into the green. This happened constantly and the constant threat of losing your job was exhausting. I hung in there but what was supposed to a fun, creative, work from home job was extremely stressful.

Pros

• I work with genuinely kind, supportive people who are always willing to jump in and help or give feedback to help me grow. • I've had the opportunity to partner with a variety of teams and build meaningful relationships across the business even from a remote setting. • Flexible work environment that allowed for a healthy work-life balance. • I've always felt trusted to manage my workload and bring new ideas to recruiting processes. • Mission-driven culture with employees who truly cared about helping clients feel confident in their personal style. • Great place to develop recruiting skills while working alongside talented and thoughtful teammates.

Cons

• Stakeholder alignment could take time when multiple teams were involved in hiring decisions. • I honestly don't have many cons to share. I can genuinely see myself working at Stitch Fix for many years to come. It's a company that truly values its people, and I'm proud to say I work here when people ask. The culture, mission, and people make it a place where I feel supported, challenged, and excited to contribute every day.

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
