Pros

Melaleuca has been a wonderful career. One thing that drew me to Melaleuca was that the company values honesty, integrity, and hard work. There are not many places of employment that believe and live the mission of helping others like Melaleuca. I have been able to see growth in my career and in myself thanks to the wonderful managers, I have had. The ground rules and culture are in line with my values. This is a company that values hard work and loyalty. Putting in the extra time and going the extra mile does get recognized. I have appreciated the recognition I have received when I have gone above and beyond expectations. Melaleuca does love to celebrate success! I love the fact that no one is unapproachable or afraid to share ideas to help others grow in their career. This is a company that I can see myself being a part of for the long run. I look forward to being a part of the continued growth and watching lives change here!

Cons

With the great growth, we have seen there can be a loss of that small town feel. There can always be room for improvement when communicating with other departments within the company.

Pros

I truly enjoy working with the people in my department, but also throughout the company. It's one of the biggest reasons I like working here. Also, the health benefits that my family and I receive from working here are so important to us. I work at the Global Headquarters office and it is such a great facility. I really enjoying walking the pathway around the campus on nice days.

Cons

You work hard here. The people I know care about their work and also pitch in to get things accomplished, even if it isn't in their job description. The building is a little far away from shopping so running errands at lunch can be a bit of a challenge. However, Melaleuca has Frank's Errands, an errand service to help us out, for free!

Pros

This is a challenging and rewarding work environment. The cream really does rise to the top here. If you work hard, excel at what you do, and really care about making a difference, then you will be noticed, and there will be opportunities for advancement and growth here. There are many perks – the health benefits are above average and the cost to the employee is much lower than average. Every employee gets a certificate for $90 worth of products every month. The products are VERY high quality, so the entire family benefits from using the products. Profit sharing to all full-time salaried employees. It pays to stick around here, as there are longevity bonuses of $5k for 5 years, $10K for 10 years, etc. incrementing every 5 years (the 20 year is $20K Net). Other noticeable things like an on-site employee restaurant, an on-site fitness center (with personal health coaches), tickets to ball games, and an outstanding annual family picnic where tons of nice prizes are awarded; this is family-values based company and many people here, and the company itself, are a very active, positive force in the community. The people here really to try to live by the company’s mission statement to enhance lives.

Cons

Can be high stress at times – there is an expectation to get the job done. This can sometimes trump other plans you may have had. There are certain times of the month and/or year where the hours can get long. To be successful here, you cannot expect this to be a typical 9-5 environment. Especially in I.T., with this being a global company – phone calls in the middle of the night and troubleshooting into the wee hours of the morning are part of the deal. Change can be a bit slow. Some programs and processes have been around for so long that it is like trying to move a mountain to make realistic improvements. This can be frustrating. The 401k matching isn’t great (2.5% max) which is the worst of any place I’ve worked in my career; however, if you add the longevity bonuses into the retirement savings, then that can make up the difference over time.
