Pros

Exciting product (working with some of the industry's top brands!), ability to learn and be trained in new skills (measuring and designing custom garments), endless upward mobility for those who are willing to work hard. A good work ethic and determiniation has opened endless doors for my personal trajectory at Trunk Club. Work hard and move up! Just like in any other job, you have to be truly willing to commit and apply yourself. If you do, the sky is the limit! Truly!

Cons

Trunk Club is still scaling so you need to be adaptable, willing to bend and learn and grow as the company learns and grows. Changing methodologies and strategies along the way can be very unsettling to some people. It can also be exciting to others! To be successful at Trunk Club, you have to work hard (that means, in all transparency, going above and beyond 9-5) ... if you are a 9-5er, this is not the place for you. This is a performance-driven and measured job, so if you are willing to work hard and give it your all, you'll go far. It's that simple.

Pros

Decent base pay, somewhat autonomous, great tip potential.

Cons

The company has changed for the worse since COVID. When I came back the mood of the entire store had shifted. Gone were the days of comradery, customer focus, and taking pride in a job well done. In its place there is a new culture of cutthroat sales, a severe decline in customer focus, and worst of all a new focus on profit over customer satisfaction. When I was told that the amount the store charged for a shoe shine was not enough to do the best job I could for a customer I knew things had gone downhill for the company. Not to mention I watch a manager prey on a mentally disabled person in order to secure a sale, when the person could not understand what was being offered. Sad that such a once great company is now just another greed ridden corporation.
