We certainly appreciate your recognition in relation our accomplishments towards being an ambitious eCommerce company fully “in the cloud.” This affords our team members the opportunity to learn new tech and stacks very quickly, keeping us at the height of the progressive technology industry. We take great pride in providing a voice for our team members, through surveys and focus groups, to ensure that, as a company, we are in line with areas that are “working” or where there are “opportunities for improvement.” We are a data driven company, and with that we do encourage that our team members provide concrete details and feedback that are metrics/data driven in an effort to stay objective and avoid subjective opinion that does not lend itself to growth. We certainly want all of our team members to find our company beneficial to their professional growth, with that being said we wish you the best of luck with future endeavors.

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.
