Pros

Work from home, set your own hours, GREAT discount on clothes. Everyone you "work" with (since you're remote, you don't really work with anyone) is super friendly and there are events you can attend to see the clothes in person and connect with other stylists.

Cons

The hours are not as flexible as you may think. There are strict numbers you have to hit every week. Sometimes styling gets boring by yourself and when inventory is bad, you have to decide whether to wait and send a late Fix to get better items, or hit your numbers and send a dud. I felt like there a lot of pressure to hit your Fixes per hour, rather than carefully choose clothes your client will love. Also, the quality of the clothes does not represent how much Stitch Fix charges. Many of my clients complained that the quality was sub-par for what they were paying. If I didn't get the discount, I doubt I would have bought a lot of the stuff I did.

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.
