Pros

Many of the Data Scientists are excellent. Tons of talent and enthusiasm. Plenty of interesting problems.

Cons

Before Eric, Brad, Mike, and Katrina left, this organization was influential and impactful. Each month, another high level departure is announced, and with it, the org goes further downhill. The most obvious problem is the terrible management. The management issues are so bad that they are now referred to out in the open during all-hands by Data Scientists. We've recently had two entire teams leave the company of their own volition because things are insufferable. Levels make no sense, managers are incapable of feedback, and most ppl in leadership got there via politics. Now they are asking data scientists to make dashboards, and they ignore the experiment results because they're obsessed with pushing garbage features to look like we are making progress. It's a real shame. Look at the attrition and ask yourself why.

Pros

• I work with genuinely kind, supportive people who are always willing to jump in and help or give feedback to help me grow. • I've had the opportunity to partner with a variety of teams and build meaningful relationships across the business even from a remote setting. • Flexible work environment that allowed for a healthy work-life balance. • I've always felt trusted to manage my workload and bring new ideas to recruiting processes. • Mission-driven culture with employees who truly cared about helping clients feel confident in their personal style. • Great place to develop recruiting skills while working alongside talented and thoughtful teammates.

Cons

• Stakeholder alignment could take time when multiple teams were involved in hiring decisions. • I honestly don't have many cons to share. I can genuinely see myself working at Stitch Fix for many years to come. It's a company that truly values its people, and I'm proud to say I work here when people ask. The culture, mission, and people make it a place where I feel supported, challenged, and excited to contribute every day.
