Pros
The people are some of the best I've worked with. Great benefits. Profit sharing is awesome.
Cons
Everyone likes it, so nobody wants to leave. This means limited promotion opportunities.

Sales Representive though mainly focused on creating marketing content for top National and Senior Sales Directors.
RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Great training programs and work environment.
Cons
The sales can be challenging in that you can create your own discounts. Was difficult for me not to give the inventory at close to cost for me to friends and family.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Positive culture among coworkers. Fosters a team atmosphere. Very courteous in how they conduct business with each other, despite the heavy work loads and long hours.
Cons
Not competitive pay. Can make $10s of thousands more elsewhere doing same job, same amount of work. Also they seem very diverse at first until you realize that their entire executive team thinks like an old white man (and there CEO is actually an old white man). So you might see people of color in management roles but it’s because they tow the traditional, conservative, risk-averse line that controls Mary Kay.

Pros
Salary and bonus is great, lots of opportunity if you work hard and follow the culture.
Cons
Sometimes there are long hours and there are some instances of "favorites".

Just like every organization there are going to be negative people. Most people are kind but there have been encounters with pushy sales people that feel grimey.
