Pros

Flexibility, Direct Sales Commission is 50% - the highest in Direct sales! Prizes, Recognition for Success, Friends, Mentors, Support, Training, Encouragement, Positivity

Cons

If you don't like women, you need not apply! The Mary Kay "way" requires building relationships with women and establishing excellent customer service for an enduring business. You can't be successful selling Mary Kay without this vital ingredient. So if you dislike ladies and their various personalities, this is not for you!

Pros

Wonderful coworkers, amenities at the Mary Kay Building, and overall a mostly pleasant place to work from a day to day perspective.

Cons

Senior management seems totally lost. Strategy is ever shifting, and seems based more on whatever management's current flight of fancy happens to be. Little to nothing has been done to address the very real long-term issues related to the business. There's a reluctance to meaningfully change or address systemic issues leading to an existential risk to the business. It's so bad, the former CEO is suing the current CEO for mismanaging the company. They are father and son. It's that bad.
