Overpromised and Oversold the position - werkgeversreview Personal Shopper bij ShopThing

Travel, work balance life, surrounded by luxury

They don’t see you as valuable if your not making sales even though it’s all dependent on marketing , commission is impossible to make

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

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.
