Pros

Most people on the team are deeply passionate about their work and the mission behind Guayakí, to share Yerba Mate and stay eco-friendly while rebuilding the rainforest and working with indigenous groups. For part-time work, the pay was good, and the work was fun and deeply involved in the community. They gave us lots of freedom to be creative.

Cons

About once every week or two weeks, we had to lift/carry/move a significant amount of Yerba Mate cases (~60-80), each weighing ~12lbs. I didn't mind the weekly exercise, but it was tiring in the moment.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear you connected with our strong mission and enjoyed the community-focused, creative aspects of the work. It’s wonderful to know the passion of our team stood out to you. We also appreciate your note about the physical demands of moving product—while it’s part of the role, we understand it can be tiring. We’ll continue looking for ways to better support our team in balancing those responsibilities. Thank you for being part of Yerba Madre's journey!
