Pros

Very positive experience overall. In business for yourself, but not BY yourself. Products are priced right, and the Company stands behind all of their products and their research. SO important. The 100% guarantee means I can sell with confidence and make sure my customers have what they want. The people I have met as a result of Mary Kay has opened doors to lasting friendships and has allowed me to meet many new customers and business associates.

Cons

There are no cons regarding the company itself. Their marketing plan is solid.

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.
