Pros

My experiences at The RealReal have been both exciting and fulfilling. While there is an abundance of opportunity for personal growth, collaborative efforts are encouraged, and the company's structure fosters synergy. As the company continues to expand it's growth efforts, the future looks increasingly bright for those who embrace the culture and the CEO's philosophies. To these ends, employees are afforded a unique ability to create outsized impacts from their contributions, while maintaining a sense of pride in their work.

Cons

Change can be fast and relentless; those that are unable to embrace the company's system of constant self-evaluation, may find themselves frustrated with the myriad of priorities.

Pros

Pay and commission can be good, but the structure is unnecessarily convoluted and not as generous as it seems, and you will have no work/life balance if you want to actually make consistently high commission. If you have a true passion for luxury and fashion, you do get a lot of opportunities to handle and interact with special/rare items, and depending on store location you can meet a lot of interesting industry people and celebrities, especially during Fashion Weeks

Cons

Poor and unsupportive management with extremely unrealistic demands and expectations; you will get virtually no training, but are immediately expected to know how to do everything. The overall company culture is just unpleasant and very cliquey, and there's constant employee turnover. The online customer service system is terrible, so you will frequently have to handle customer issues that have nothing to do with you/your sales.
