Growing company with lots of opportunity. Great products you can be proud that are offered to customers all around the world. eCommerce industry. Great office environment with gym, free snacks, and other perks.

Cons

Project level focus to move things to completion is great, however, strategically there is a lack of communication of short term and long term plans for the company.

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.
