Pros

Company is wfh and most work is independent so there is flexibility some days. There are interesting projects to work on in marketing. Nice resume builder to enter marketing or fashion industry. Everyone I encountered here was friendly and easy to work with. There is a lot more diversity and different kinds of people now.

Cons

Unreasonable expectations from Chinese headquarters; Communication from upper management and team leader is nonexistent and everything is last minute here. Simple tasks and projects are a headache because hq is overseas and there is a delay due to time difference or language barrier. No real career development. You’ll learn how to do things the long hard way. Entry level pay is extremely low.

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
