Pros

It's remote and fairly easy when inventory is available, but that's not often.

Cons

NOT FLEXIBLE and grossly underpaid. Don't be deceived, with recent changes, it is not flexible at all, especially when you're full-time. They have no qualms squashing good talent to keep costs low, are happy to throw employees under the bus with no warnings, hire outside of the company for management that doesn't know what's going on, and keep secrets that ultimately penalize the lowest-paid members of the company. What was once a dream job is now a demeaning worker-bee position in a company full of toxic positivity and secretiveness. Also, absolutely NO upward mobility anymore within the company, you're stuck where you started whether you like it or not. Wouldn't be surprised if half the company quit after this week. AVOID!

Pros

You are able to work from home

Cons

Very unmotivating work environment. You get a couple of small raisies when you first start but then they cut off raises and expect you to perform at 100% efficiency 100% of the time. There is no motivation to do so. You are basically chained to you desk while you style because everything you do is timed. They provide no tools or stipend for the items you need in order to work from home. No internet stipend, nothing towards your computer, I never even got a pencil after being there 5 years. You have little no interaction with other people. The inventory is poor. Management is always turning over. I think I had about 8 different managers over my 5 years there. They mico manage you. You would think styling would be a creative job but not here. You don't even get to write your own note to a client anymore. AI writes it and you pretty much have to go that route bc you have about 8 minutes to style a client to stay within your efficiency goals. Overall its great that you can work from home but the job is extremely unmotivating and not rewarding. There is no room for advancement. DO yourself a favor and look elsewhere. This is not the company or culture you want.
