Pros

The Priorities of owning a business are in order: First comes your faith, then your family lastly your career. As long as you remember those three things, in that order and additionally remember to treat people the way you would like to be treated: You will succeed! The flexibility and the money are the best reason to be a Mary Kay independent consultant. The more you put into your individual business the more you get out of it. You receive so much support from others, including Mary Kay Corporate, which allows individual growth. There is no other direct selling business that is out there where you can earn up to 50% from everything that you sell. It is a wonderful opportunity and I am proud to be a Mary Kay independent consultant!

Cons

There are really no downsides that I have experienced of working at Mary Kay Cosmetics.
