Pros

Great benefits, good salaries and bonuses.

Cons

Everything. The 4 stars that this company has comes from the sales consultants and not from the people who actually work there. This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Your "friends" are just waiting to stab you in the back. Employees are fired for the smallest things. If they don't like you, they will find some way to get rid of you. Just don't ever work for this company. Mary Kay would roll over in her grave if she knew how employees were being treated now.

Pros

Being a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant gives me the flexibility to keep my work and life in balance. I get awesome training and mentoring, and work with sharp, positive women doing something we love. Best of all, I know I'm making a difference in others' lives.

Cons

Sometimes it is difficult to be a self-starter! Nobody is going to make you go to work, you have to motivate yourself and make something happen.
