Pros

Young and sometimes cool coworkers plus dogs in office

Cons

Severely low pay for tasks, no room for growth, company has a long history of not paying their employees overtime leading to a pattern of lawsuits, backwards social responsibility (unfortunately, they will never stop stealing designs), managers don't know what their workers do

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
