Pros

Literally none. You can work from home but the hours are not flexible (You're scheduled down to the minute two weeks in advance for hours you may or not be granted) or reliable (Hours may swing anywhere from 25 per week which you'll be expected to fulfill or less than 10 hours without any real explanation from management, you're just expected to deal with it).

Cons

Ever since this company has gone public their aim is money and nothing else at all costs. They are banking on the hope that their staff & clients don't wise up to this fact. Don't fall for it. They want to be a contender in the modern retail world of online shopping and try to employ slave-driving tactics similar to those grueling conditions that we've heard about at Amazon, only Stitch Fix can't even deliver the quality service that a company like Amazon offers. They will shove florals, stripes, out of date + out of season inventory down your throat until the cows come home because rather than actually listening to the feedback of their clients + stylists, they function from a strict top down line of decision making that will simply not budge. Meanwhile they have and will no doubt continue to force loyal, dedicated, and talented stylists (I cannot stress enough how much the creativity and smarts of our stylists are the ONLY saving grace of this incredibly dysfunctional company) out of their roles at their convenience (Usually it seems that dumping a great deal of workers helps up their purported stock numbers... less staff to pay= the value of the company seemingly increases). I honestly could go on and on about the cons of this company. But I'll stop here and just direct you to the other honest reviews on this wonderful website. I know that Glassdoor is keen to remove fake reviews. That being said, I am confident that many FAKE positive reviews sneak through..Note, these positive reviews can rarely elaborate on anything while the TRUE negative reviews will be able to defend/explain their stance thoroughly. Just please, trust us stylists. I wish I could still work for this company because I love styling, but I just can't be mistreated like this any longer. Don't let yourself be used by them. Wish I could rate the company as zero stars or negative stars.

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
