Pros

Good learning opportunity. Great snacks.

Cons

Nepotism is big here. They recently let go a whole bunch of people without any reason and the remaining employees are in the dark for whatever the reason was. There have been all sorts of issues with salaries including salary increase. Don’t believe the fake “all is good” reviews.

While iHerb certainly promotes transparency and one’s ability to leverage constructive feedback, we would recommend you address these concerns with HR or the Management team. As a company in rapid growth, realignments to the workforce will take place to adjust to the industries momentum. Unfortunately, there is not a perfect solution and iHerb takes a great deal of care and consideration when any roles are eliminated in a restructuring.

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.
