Pros

It was once a flexible work from home, whenever you want job, but post Covid it became a nightmare and they jerked us all around until they finally let go of their ENTIRE California styling team after most of us had been there 5+ years.

Cons

Hostile, passive aggressive management. Openly treat their employees like disposable nothings. Make constant company changes that you are expected to pivot with at a second's notice. Laid us all off in the middle of a pandemic when a lot of us had children to feed. I was there for over five years and I never felt like I was part of a team. My managers quit all the time, I think by the end of my career there I had been on 9 different teams. It's extremely stressful keeping your "metrics" in the green and you are blamed for things that have nothing to do with you like extremely limited inventory - sweaters in July and no shorts, for example. Then you get in trouble because nobody kept anything you sent them. If your metrics ever dip into the red, an emergency meeting is called and you are told you will be fired in three weeks if they don't go back into the green. This happened constantly and the constant threat of losing your job was exhausting. I hung in there but what was supposed to a fun, creative, work from home job was extremely stressful.

Pros

You are able to work from home

Cons

Very unmotivating work environment. You get a couple of small raisies when you first start but then they cut off raises and expect you to perform at 100% efficiency 100% of the time. There is no motivation to do so. You are basically chained to you desk while you style because everything you do is timed. They provide no tools or stipend for the items you need in order to work from home. No internet stipend, nothing towards your computer, I never even got a pencil after being there 5 years. You have little no interaction with other people. The inventory is poor. Management is always turning over. I think I had about 8 different managers over my 5 years there. They mico manage you. You would think styling would be a creative job but not here. You don't even get to write your own note to a client anymore. AI writes it and you pretty much have to go that route bc you have about 8 minutes to style a client to stay within your efficiency goals. Overall its great that you can work from home but the job is extremely unmotivating and not rewarding. There is no room for advancement. DO yourself a favor and look elsewhere. This is not the company or culture you want.
