Pros

40% discount however since the new policies were announced on 8/2/21 I am not interested in buying anything from Stitch Fix.

Cons

Rigid scheduling, we have to share our schedule 2 weeks in advance down to 15 minutes increments but we don't get our actual hours until 2 days before the new week starts. Also, AI/robots are doing more and more styling and the company is not being transparent about this with clients and stylists take the brunt of the negative feedback (a Fix Preview styled by AI could include 4 sweaters in July for someone that lives in Miami or you could see things you specifically asked NOT to see). Low pay - but the freedom with scheduling made it worth it to me. Stylists are feeling dispensable since after we quit we can be replaced with someone from a state with lower wages. Another small thing, I used to be able to do volunteer work during the day and would make up my hours at night - I felt so lucky to have a flexible schedule and I will miss this. So much for "Stitch Fix for Good".

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.
