Pros

Unlimited time off (that’s it)

Cons

The most TOXIC place I’ve ever worked. The office feels very mean girls where bullying takes place (owners know who it is yet she’s still there and they turn a blind eye) Hard to trust anyone since a lot of the girls pretend to be friends yet talk badly about each other. HR is allegedly related to the CEO (super unethical) Lots of favouritism and unequal treatment. I’ve never been so miserable & depressed in my life. So happy to not be in that toxic environment anymore. Owners love to gaslight you into thinking they care and that you’re doing a good job (but do several layoffs for no reason) Super disorganized and owners/management love to use the word “startup” as an excuse for everything. Owners want and expect the impossible while they pay you unfairly but of course pay their favourites well. I can go on for days but I’ll stop here. Stay away from this place unless you want to be overworked, depressed, miserable and underpaid.

Pros

You get to try on clothes and engage with viewers real time which is engaging and rewarding.

Cons

They showed up in-person 40 minutes late and at the wrong location. ShopThing had a live security camera filming me while changing on the first day. They require you to drive to Woodbury 3x a week which means 6 hrs/day in rush hour traffic if you live in Brooklyn and they don’t cover most commuter costs. If you don't drive, you have to wait in line for a bus that's often filled up requiring you to stand outside for up to an hour for the next bus in all elements. They want you to film in outlet stores without permission, often getting thrown out for doing your job. One girl broke her back on her commute and the company doesn't offer health insurance. Somehow they expect you to earn $80k/month by your third month with the company hounding you to meet your sales goals. Girls often post 24/7 including weekends to meet their quota.
