Pros

Working at a fast growing start up where any idea is considered and out of the box thinking is encouraged feels more like fun and less like work!

Cons

No cons. Everyone's work matters at TheRealReal so if you are not willing to take pride in your work and give your all every day...this is not the place for you!

Pros

$25 food credit (used to be $50), commiserate with your colleagues about how INSANE management is, build experience and and run!

Cons

horrible upper management, micromanaging...essentially a company run by twentysomething women who believe they are at a fashion house when in reality we're selling used womenswear.

So sorry to hear about your views. What I have loved about this start up is that it is run by people who have a lot of experience. It would be great to know what your concerns were while here, so that we could learn and grow. The company certainly is not the right fit for everyone, but I feel it's important for everyone to be heard. That amazing merchandise can live again thru TRR is one of reasons I am both a customer and employee--doing good with beautiful things.
