Pros

Good place to start if you're trying to get into fashion. Great employee discounts, cute clothes.

Cons

Unprofessional, gossipy and unqualified directors in high-ranking positions due to a personal relationship with the owner and not because they are qualified for the job; especially in creative services. Michael Stars wants to be competitive with brands that have done the 'basic tee' business model right, but does not want to invest in the resources or talent to achieve that. They expect to achieve it with an outdated business model and the mentality of "we've been doing it this way for 15 years." Their refusal to adapt to technology slows down the process because projects are not managed efficiently. Further slowing down workflows is the caddy, gossipy culture which distract from achieving any goal they're striving for. Projects are ultimately handled singlehandedly by the few who keep their heads down and out of the drama.
