Pros

*Lead was amazing *good clothing discount *work from home (although the actual flexibility has changed negatively over the years) *decent part time pay (as a side gig)

Cons

*The constant changes to the technology led this company from a truly personalized and great place to work; to a mindless rat race *Truly awful inventory season after season *Toxic positivity and gaslighting from most "uppers" in the company...there is a reason so many upper management from the pre-Lizzy days have left *Unrealistic KPI expectations with constantly moving goal posts...even if you are fabulous at styling across all kpi/metrics...you will inevitably "fail" due to how the system is set up for stylists. *stylists are treated as disposable by company *unethical marketing tactics...ie: they show items we don't even carry and mis-represent our *actual* product (which is cheap and years old...just get's cycled to customers over and over again)

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
