Pros

* This information is for the Supply Chain Solution Side * Will learn a lot. Use the latest tools and software (DEPENDING ON TEAM) * Younger devs are always looking to have fun, go out to eat, and work together * Office is in cool location

Cons

* All the benefits I originally joined with were then removed. (Unlimited PTO, Game Room, Lunches..etc) * The upper management has zero clue what they are doing. have to redo projects handful of time and start from scratch * Everything is always due yesterday. But when you complete it, its not needed * Promotions are very much IF THEY LIKE YOU based. * Managers are rude * When i was there almost 60% of the engineering team left.

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.
