Scentsy Reviews

Pros

To clarify for everyone: Scentsy is a direct selling company, so there are two types of reviews you see on glassdoor; those from the employees who work for the company (HQ is in Meridian, ID), and those of the consultants who are independent of Scentsy the corporation and operate their own business selling Scentsy products (and exist all over the world). It is important to keep that difference in mind when reading reviews so that you can get the most relevant feedback to your situation and job search.

I work at the main office in Meridian ID as an employee. It is a great place to work and everyone is very friendly. In my mind, it is the best of both worlds: It is large enough to have the perks of a large company but small enough to still have a startup feel and the power to control your career, advance, and pursue solutions.

Here are some perks:
- competitive salary
- great 401K plan and match (Roth 401K option)
- great HSA match for those who choose that medical plan
- onsite gym (free for employees and only $5 for family)
- onsite cafeteria with healthy food
- onsite coffee cafe
- large campus with walking trails, trees, plants, etc.
- subsidized food for employees
- great employee events and activities
- health conscious and supports working out, riding bike to work, health classes, etc.
- casual dress
- very diverse culture
- very family friendly
- lots of other side benefits that come up throughout the year

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing... employee morale is very high compared to other companies I've worked at. No company is perfect, but management is very accessible to feedback, and there is a difference between making an honest mistake in execution (and fixing it next time) and doing something intentional knowing it hurts employees (and not caring if culture suffers). The owners are definitely interested in having a positive culture and work environment.

Scentsy is going through some growing pains, but that just means there are some great opportunities for those employees who want to take the initiative, as you are certainly empowered to do so.

Pros

Great product, and brand recognition

Advice to Management

It's counter-productive to suspend someone's ability to sell because they failed to make an order within a narrow timeframe.

Pros

you can make your own hours

Pros

Great people, awesome environment, exceptional employee perks and benefits, fun projects and learning abilities, potential for growth opportunities in certain departments.

Advice to Management

Keep up with pay scales within the city. You want talent you have to pay to keep existing employees. It is known that long term employees get stuck and watch new people come in with more pay and advancement while the existing get left behind. HR needs to help keep the hardworking employees so they don't lose them.

Pros

Orville and Heidi, nice natural sunlit office space, great cafeteria

Advice to Management

I really felt out to sea working at Scentsy. I did a lot of work for them and received very little feedback on it. My emails were rarely answered and I was given next to no direction as to what was expected of me. I felt like I was working in a vaccum. My advice would be for the management to get on the same page with one another and to take a few courses on interpersonal skills (and I don't say the latter part lightly.) I left this company feeling pretty darn low.

Pros

Decent family company that offers a lot of things for employees

Pros

Great team collaboration, fun atmosphere. Amazing corporate culture and values

Pros

I love being my own boss and earning extra money for things I need in an emergency. I make 25% commission on everything I sell

Pros

I personally liked the product

Pros

Wonderful company, win trips, yearly functions hosted by founders and excellent products
