      Unorganized & Pay is Low

      Pros

      Fun to work in the fashion industry

      Cons

      Uses a rating system to figure out pay but it's not cohesive with what Users actually rate you. This in turn makes paychecks questionable.

      There is potential for good money. Very flexible and can work with almost any schedule. Easy onboarding process. It's fun to work in fashion.

      Very very difficult to get in touch with anyone when there are technical issues. Not a lot of guidance from staff.

      Great company

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great company with excellent products, high ethics, employee benefits, pay. Managers are rated on employee satisfaction, so pay attention to this. Coworkers are very smart, generally pleasant, and good to work with.

      Cons

      Very few cons. Mainly, it's getting a bit large, so it's hard to have a sense of how you are contributing. The promotion system is designed to be fair by having anonymous committees review written packets and you can self-nominate, but as a result the burden of proving you are promotable is extremely high. You (or your manager) really have to be focused on promotion, find and work on projects with the right demonstrable complexity and impact, and have extensive written documentation and peer statements to validate. The entire process can take years.
