      Enormous resources to let you do what you want to do

      Pros

      Great benefits. Mostly great managers. Talented coworkers. Good culture that tries to make things better, with leaders that take action to try to make things better.

      Cons

      It's a big company. Not all parts/teams/people are good. It can be hard to "assume good intent" when interacting with people you do not know across the company. It can be hard to get things done because the company is so big that you have to find your own roadmap.

      Eh - wanting this to work

      Personal stylist

      Pros

      Flexible schedule, work from anywhere, stay up-to-date with the trends, ability to gain styling experience.

      Cons

      Their new pay model is awful. At first it was great as I was in the Platinum tier. Then I dropped to Gold, and now I'm struggling in the Silver tier. There are two more tiers below Silver - I can only imagine what they're making per message. I make a conscious effort to style the client by their specific needs - yet my pay or tier does not reflect my work. Pods are always empty - I can style about 3 clients/hr on a good day with this new pay model. I worked for 6 hrs yesterday and made $39 - absolutely terrible. The system is supposed to catch if you've sent items before, sometimes it doesn't and you send the client an item they've already disliked. This system fault leads to stylists' failures.

      Amazing when you look at it as a whole

      Pros

      Everyone I work with is willing to help when you when you need it, give you advice, support, and overall super friendly. The company provides you with a ton of resources, benefits, and I have heard many stories of them helping employees beyond what normal companies would do in special circumstances that shows how much they value you. It is a very transparent workplace that offers employees the ability to speak up and voice their opinions

      Cons

      They encourage you to do 20% projects but really what that means is do 120% work because you still need to get all of your regular work done and it feels like if you aren't doing 120% then you won't move up anytime soon.
