Motivated by Challenge? Because there are currently A LOT at Stitch Fix. - Senior Stylist Stitch Fix Employee Review

Stitch Fix seeks to hire people who are "kind, bright, and motivated by challenge." I worked at Stitch Fix for a little over 6 years, and there has been no end to the challenges. Where do I start? *Inventory is unimaginably bad. I'm talking 0 pairs of girls jeans during back-to-school season and 0 pairs of women's/men's pants as more and more people return to work. *You will be required to crank out more and more sub-standard Fixes to hit an arbitrary and ever-changing metric. And you will do this without receiving a commission or any sort of extra monetary compensation. But you will get a store credit and neat pin for every anniversary you celebrate. *The algorithm will style some or all of the Fixes you pull and your Clients will understandably be upset because the exact same damn sweater will be selected in 4 different colors for them. *Interested in a management role? Great! Here is a mountain of busywork. You will receive no extra pay for these tasks and will have to squeeze them into the limited "Core" time you also use to read and respond to emails, client feedback, take breaks, etc. You might be promoted at some nebulous time in the future, while competing with 60+ other Stylists AND outside hires. * You must set a schedule down to 15-minute intervals between 8 am-8 pm. You will not be guaranteed a minimum amount of hours. *Our platforms are notoriously glitchy and can be down for hours. You'll be expected to change your schedule or forgo those hours and not get compensated. *With all of these challenges, HQ will gaslight you and make you participate in asinine meetings in which you reflect on what *you* can do to better serve your Clients.
