      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It was very hands on and the extra bonuses were always a plus while working there. You also learn a lot.

      Cons

      There were really no cons. It might get a little bit slow in there some days so there might not be anything to do.

      Great place to begin working in the fashion industry

      Fashion intern

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The fashion assistant, market director, and even fashion director were extremely kind and open to working closely with interns. This definitely helped later in life.

      Cons

      Because of the vast number of interns, there was often little to do at the beginning of the summer. By August, many interns had quit and responsibility increased.

      Hearst Digital Media/Seattle PI

      Sales representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Upbeat interview process and the prospect to work for a well known brand. Downtown Seattle waterfront bldg.

      Cons

      Open floor setting where people can see and hear each other at all time. Worst setting for making calls to clients. Very hight turnover rate, likely 70%-80%. Managed by a variety of people who fly in from out of town every week. Selling avery tired line of SEO/SEM that most business can and should self manage. Cultural clash between old Seattle PI sales reps and new sales reps that have to sell non PI ad space.
