Pros

-flexibility working from home -bring your dog to work friday -22 days of PTO

Cons

Honestly, the cons outweigh the pros TREMENDOUSLY. -extremely low pay. Working in fashion is already an industry that does not pay well but here at Madewell, it is shameful. While i was there a request for a raise had been made 4 times within a year and still never received a clear answer or direction on when that would happen. -Upper management is not held accountable for structural failure. -there is serious favortism in this company, very caddy-like environment -you are expected to work long hours yet are reprimanded when managers ask why you are working so late as an assistant -there is a huge disconnect between merchandisers and production. Production is expected to answer all emails immediately when merchandisers will go weeks without proper response or updates Overall, an unpleasant work environment masked by "cute decorations" and "lifting women up" marketing. Hardly being lifted up by
