Pros

As a part-time stylist, the pros are the ability to work from home, enjoying a flexible schedule, being independent, etc. Also, if you've never worked in fashion, you'll think it's cool to call yourself a Stylist.

Cons

Pay is $15/hr which translates to $3.75 per client styled. You get paid less than $4 to style someone whether they spend $20 or $200, whether you are good at styling clients or not. There are long stretches of time (months) with very little new inventory. It is depressing to send great clients sub-par items. The good stylists are not rewarded, so high performers leave. Supervisors use this fake rah-rah cheerleader style of communication to try to motivate stylists. It's obviously not genuine.

Pros

The people you actually work with are actually fantastic humans and brilliant engineers. They're eager to learn, collaborate, and help no matter what level they are or team they're on. You can make real friends here.

Cons

Unfortunately, the business just hasn't been as stable as it used to be. Leadership is always changing something and there isn't as much transparency about those decisions as there once was.

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.
