Cons

Profit isn't garunteed, have to recruit and activate new recruits to max out bonuses, must carry stock to make good money, expenses sometimes outweighed profit. It's party plan... what you put in is what you get.

Cons

Consultant discounts start at 40%, which means prices are high. Sometimes hard to compete with other companies, to make sales on similar products.

Very limited sample options.

MUST do in home parties to be successful. This is not a business you can run online.

Shipping for consultants is outrageous and for beginners, it's extremely financially taxing.

Business supplies are pricey, as well.

Training and conferences are so costly, even before paying for transportation and hotel room. The company makes it seem like you won't succeed without paying (many) $100s for national training, world conferences, etc, which makes it hard to stay motivated.

Cons

The majority of management (including top leadership) is so unsure of themselves they never communicate expectations, don't set parameters for successs, and micromanage down to the minute to actively prevent employees from taking any level of initiative. The level of infighting rivals a school playground, and unprofessionalism is abound. Because the way the company has grown, it has built a bubble around itself that actively squashes outside perspective. You're either all-in or you're the enemy. There's no room for a differing opinion or fresh perspective. Turnover is atrocious, and those that have stayed adopt a scary battered mentality where it's rationalized as normal when an employee is berated with cursing and put-downs just because a leader was feeling a bit grumpy. Note to potential employees: filter out reviews that don't come from corporate hq jobs. After someone leaves a bad review, Consultants (non-employees who buy and resell product) are asked to leave multiple glowing reviews to drown out the bad.
