Pros

Work from home, set your own hours, GREAT discount on clothes. Everyone you "work" with (since you're remote, you don't really work with anyone) is super friendly and there are events you can attend to see the clothes in person and connect with other stylists.

Cons

The hours are not as flexible as you may think. There are strict numbers you have to hit every week. Sometimes styling gets boring by yourself and when inventory is bad, you have to decide whether to wait and send a late Fix to get better items, or hit your numbers and send a dud. I felt like there a lot of pressure to hit your Fixes per hour, rather than carefully choose clothes your client will love. Also, the quality of the clothes does not represent how much Stitch Fix charges. Many of my clients complained that the quality was sub-par for what they were paying. If I didn't get the discount, I doubt I would have bought a lot of the stuff I did.

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
