MeUndies | 124,000-168,000
Steph's Notes:
Y'all, the noise I made when I saw "CX Director, MeUndies" in the #jobs channel in ElevateCX. WOOOOOOOOOO.
Okay, for real. I can do this. I am a serious professional.
The Director of Customer Experience will lead the charge in shaping and implementing our customer experience strategy, ensuring every interaction our customers have with our brand is delightful, seamless, and unforgettable.
SEAMLESS.
working closely with departments
Some might say cheek to cheek.
Highly motivated dreamer & doer
Candidate should eat lots of fiber.
adept at both strategic high-level thinking as well as execution
Only the highest levels of execution in MeUndies.
The base salary range for this full-time position is $124,000-$168,000
They sure are paying bottom dollar!
Special mention -
Miles G: I guess a candidate would be bummed to lose.
Mat Patterson: Still a better role than being Director of Retention for Me Undies, where failure really is very public.
OKAY, FOR REAL, I'M DONE.
In all seriousness, MeUndies says, "This is a hybrid position of 4 days/week in our Los Angeles office," which, I mean, come on. That's on-site with one day telework authorized. Be at least a little more serious than me.
This is not me being snarky (intentionally, anyway), but they say this position will be reporting to the VP of CX, and a lot (if not all) of the duties of this position sound like something a VP would do, so I'm genuinely curious about what the VP of CX does at MeUndies.
A Master's degree is a plus.
I often wonder why companies want a candidate with a master's degree if they're not specific about the kind of master's degree they want to see. What does a master's degree bring to the table that a candidate with 10-15 years of highly specialized experience doesn't?
That bottom-dollar pun was terrible but apt. That range for an on-site role in Los Angeles is bad enough, but for a Director of CX (possibly doing the work of a VP)? Unimpressed Steph is unimpressed. All of that, combined with the fact that there's no Careers page to speak of, means this belongs in Tread Carefully.
