Pros

Flexibility - MK is designed so that you can do as little or as much as you want. If you only want to make an extra $100 per month or if you want to become a National director with the whole pink caddie thing. It's all up to you, you make your own goals and decide when to reach them. Compensation - there is no middle man or cut that MK takes from your profits it is a simple you buy wholesale and sell retail. You buy for $5 and sell for $10. For signing up team members you get 4% to 9%+ on their purchases (not their sales). The cars of course are wonderful 2yr lease or a monthly check in the mail very nice. Not to mention period prizes you get based on inventory purchased. Jewelery, purses, and lots more that you win along the way. Enjoyability - MK ladies are wonderful the support is great and the spirits of everyone are amazing. The job is fun you can't get much better than to get paid to play with makeup and have parties!

Cons

Haven't come across any yet although I don't know if they offer any benefits like health/dental etc
