Positive Reviews From Vitamin Shoppe Employees

  • What did you like most about the interview process?
    Now that I think of it, it was very bare-bones. I feel I was lied to. It's been 8 months and still no overtime

    Making customers happy and helping people
  • What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
    The coworkers who talk about the negatives about the company

    I would like to be paid more for training someone above me
  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    Salary is non-competitive. Salary does not increase with experience or promotions by more than a dollar at best, a quarter at worst.
  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    Marketing, customer care, technology and software -- the website and app. Pay people what they're worth.
