Pros

There used to be lots of pros but it all changed 12 months ago with all leaders now in China. They cut IT roles as it suits them and have removed some great managers

Cons

Lack of real leadership, all based in China now and if you don't speak the language you can forget getting involved. Currently under investigation for GDPR issues even though they have been told internally they are in breech, says it all really.

Pros

The company was growing pretty fast and had a startup like pace, until the tariffs happened. SHEIN’s pace slowed down a lot and the company pivoted to cost optimization

Cons

1) company’s leadership, especially the US leadership lacks vision and creates a toxic work culture by constantly belittling people in open and yelling at them. 2) the small group of top leaders almost behave like high school bullies colluding with each other 3) you’ll struggle to survive, let alone succeed, if you don’t speak Chinese. 4) Sheins compensation is significantly below industry peers 5) Daily late night calls with the China team mean a non existent work life balance. You are expected to be available at all times, including late night and weekends
