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

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.
