Pros

Good Benefits. Got hot girlfriend out of it.

Cons

Soul crushing culture of blame and fear. I gave my heart and soul to this job but was consistently chewed out by management for things outside of my control. I began having panic attacks and trouble sleeping. My whole life has improved since leaving. I was quickly promoted and praised at my new job... I'm not incompetent after all! I make way more money and leadership can actually be nice and encouraging!

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.
