Pros

Meeting a few cool people Work from home

Cons

Horrible management. They all work in fear which then becomes a domino effect and it gives everyone under management massive stress and anxiety. A lot of people have worked there for 5+ years and don’t even get promoted when it’s well deserved. There is absolutely NO culture at all. Everyone always seems to be in a bad mood or stressed and never open to any team outings or anything fun to build team morale. It was just work, work, work and make us money. Major micro-managey No work life balance- They don’t even approve your time off if it’s more than 3 days!!! AND ITS UNLIMITED TIME OFF!!! Am I missing something here?

Pros

iHerb pays 100% of medical benefits for you and your immediate family. They are generous with vacation accruals. Salaries are generous.

Cons

The company continues to operate with a small-business, "mom-and-pop" mentality despite its growth. Leadership is highly centralized, with most decisions driven by the CEO. Employees often perceive that those who are not viewed favorably by leadership are eventually managed out of the organization. There is a culture of fear around speaking up, as many employees worry about potential negative consequences to their employment. Favoritism among leaders is frequently observed, and advancement opportunities can be limited for individuals who are not part of the preferred inner circle.
