Pros

Good benefits, overall laid back atmosphere and great values.

Cons

Distributors have way too much influence. It is impossible to work according to an annual plan, as everything changes depending on the demands of top distributors. Halfway through the year, over 40% of projects executed were not planned for the year. Some executives are out of touch with their own teams and even more so with other areas. The company operates in silos and if it wasn't for the comradeship among employees, nothing would get done. Way too many people are promoted based on politics vs competence.

Pros

I really enjoyed working with the team at Herbalife. The people were highly collaborative, intellectually strong, and genuinely positive to work with. We worked on challenging projects involving advanced technology, and I felt the company had strong leadership, solid resources, and clear direction. Compared to some of my previous experiences, it stood out as a very healthy and growth-oriented environment.

Cons

One area where I think Herbalife could evolve further is around remote-first flexibility. Given how international and cross-functional the organization is, I think there’s strong value in supporting a more flexible hybrid model. Certain types of collaboration absolutely benefit from in-person interaction, and the company has an impressive headquarters and office environment. At the same time, many workflows are already highly digital and meeting-driven, so enabling more remote flexibility could improve efficiency, accessibility, and work-life balance without sacrificing collaboration.
