Pros

Very fast growing company with lots of potential for growth. Benefits are offered that most companies have done away with, profit sharing, 401K match, good health and dental insurance options. Clean and safe work environment with people who treat each other with kindness and respect for the most part. Company does a great deal of charitable giving and company events.

Cons

Some bad apples in upper management.

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.
