Ambivalent Culture

Pros

Good salaries and benefits. Great mission and products. For a small company, processes are very well put together.

Cons

Culture is unique. I made a lot of friends. But with new leadership in marketing, culture has become REALLY toxic.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. As you noted, our employees share passion for our purpose and pride in our products. At Pharmavite, we care as much about what we do, as who we do it with and how; in other words, our colleagues and culture really matter to us. One of our company values is to “do the right thing” and accordingly, bullying is expressly prohibited as part of our Code of Conduct. We do not take the use of that word lightly and there is a zero tolerance for any mistreatment of our valued employees. Anyone who believes they have been bullied or have witnessed it are required to report the incident immediately to their supervisor, Human Resources, or our Ethics Hotline. We are disappointed that you did not feel a part of our culture and wish you success in your future endeavors.

Pros

The two positive things that come to mind are competitive salaries and 5 free vitamin products every month.

Cons

I found the Marketing department to be a hostile work environment with a fear-based culture. The Marketing leadership team is uninspiring and do not take an active interest in the development and well-being of their employees. A lot of the time it just felt like a sweatshop. The Brand leadership lack crucial skills and experience needed to set the strategic vision and ability to inspire and motivate the rest of the team. I also found them to have very questionable ethics. If you challenge them, they will not hesitate to intentionally and maliciously set you up to fail.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are disappointed to hear about your experience as it does not reflect the strong culture on our Marketing team, and at the company more broadly. Over the past few years our Marketing group has been rebuilt from the ground up with top talent and influential leaders from across Consumer Packaged Goods, health and wellness, and other related industries. It always takes time for emergent teams to settle, but our most recent company survey revealed that 88% of Marketing employees report their immediate manager is an effective leader and 100% report their immediate manager does a great job at managing the work. We are sorry you did not feel a part of this progress and wish you success in your future endeavors.

Pros

The company does a great job of taking care of its employees with competitive salaries & bonus structure, a comprehensive benefits package, and some nice perks as well.

Cons

While an established company, Pharmavite is continuing to grow and with that comes some growing pains. There are instances where there isn't alignment across departments as well as instances of 'that meeting could've been an email'. Overall though I feel like the company is moving in the right direction

Pros

Good health benefits and bonus payout potential, average salary, and a brand that has strong brand equity that allows it to grow year-after-year

Cons

Dysfunctional, disgruntled culture that has its dis-satisfaction pacified by the consistent bonus payout each year. Not a place for progressive thought leaders who want to challenge the status quo, its a do what your told and don't question the direction you have been given management style. Marketing and Innovation team is weak which has led to stagnate, non-existent new product innovation. New open office format at HQ building is difficult to work productively in.

Pros

Salary and benefits are good. There is a lot of improvements to be made in Manufacturing and I'd like to be one of the drivers for those improvements. I like challenge and that is why I like working here!

Cons

Manufacturing operators don't pay attention and don't follow directions.

Pros

Great salary, benefits, and mission. Great way to relocate to Southern California. You’ll make great friends. And they hire smart people with strong experience that leave quickly to better places. So you build up with a strong network in L.A.’s CPG very quickly. It’s small size minimize corporate red tape. So you see the impact of your work quickly.

Cons

Except for sales, there is a really toxic culture. Bullies get promoted, servant leaders get PIPs. Turnout rates in marketing are insane. I think current average tenure is less than a year.
