I worked at Mary Kay full-time (More than 10 years)
Pros
Product discount is very generous. There's a limit to the amount you can purchase. It must be for personal use.
Cons
The company used to be based on Mary Kay's foundation on which she built the company: God first, family second, career third. Unfortunately, since her death the company has become more focused on making money and less about treating employees airily.
Commissioned based. Starting off was even harder because you have to have money to buy inventory, which was a bummer because I was struggling with that aspect.
