Pros

Working from home and not having to drive to an office every day. Pay was ok.

Cons

They constantly have inventory issues. There is never enough inventory to give the customers a good Fix. They can't seem to figure out how to order the correct amount of inventory and you are always disappointing customers because of this. You even go through times of just a handful of items to pick from for a client. They use the excuse that it is a start-up company when the reality is that they just don't understand inventory and ordering. You are told to do 4 Fixes per hour, yet you always have lots of emails, surveys, and other things to take care of during the week. They care more about just quickly sending out a bad Fix than taking the time to understand the customer and waiting for the right item to pop into the inventory later in the day or week. Lots of customer complaints of high prices and poor quality.

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
