Pros

I get to meet nice women and I help them look better and feel great. Life is too short to facial grumpy women! I work with positive encouraging women, who are like sunshine that live the Golden Rule. I love Mary Kay's philosophy of God first, family second and career third. i've been with MK for 22+ years and it has been a wonderful part-time opportunity that will now allow me to work full-time too.

Cons

Wiping the mirrors clean got to be old, so I delegated that to my children. It helps to be a self-starter and have somewhat of an entreprenuerial spirit. Sometimes being your own boss can lead to procrastination.

Pros

The people who are left are lovely

Cons

You are expected to perform outside your job description. Promotions are nearly impossible. Layoffs are now part of the culture. The "pink bubble" only applies to you when they need you. Once they declare you disposable, their attitude towards you drastically changes. When you get laid off, their package is pittance.
